Calls to Allocator :: allocate may throw.
After container move construction (overload (8) ), references, pointers, and iterators (other than the end iterator) to other remain valid, but refer to elements that are now in * this . The current standard makes this guarantee via the blanket statement in [container.reqmts]/67 , and a more direct guarantee is under consideration via LWG issue 2321 .
The overload (4) zeroes out elements of non-class types such as int , which is different from the behavior of new[] , which leaves them uninitialized. To match the behavior of new [ ] , a custom Allocator::construct can be provided which leaves such elements uninitialized.
Note that the presence of list-initializing constructor (10) means list initialization and direct initialization do different things:

The C++ Standard Library vector class is a class template for sequence containers. A vector stores elements of a given type in a linear arrangement, and allows fast random access to any element. A vector is the preferred container for a sequence when random-access performance is at a premium.
Type The element data type to be stored in the vector
Allocator The type that represents the stored allocator object that encapsulates details about the vector's allocation and deallocation of memory. This argument is optional and the default value is allocator<Type> .
Vectors allow constant time insertions and deletions at the end of the sequence. Inserting or deleting elements in the middle of a vector requires linear time. The deque class container is faster at insertions and deletions at the beginning and end of a sequence. The list class container is faster at insertions and deletions at any location within a sequence.
Vector reallocation occurs when a member function must increase the sequence contained in the vector object beyond its current storage capacity. Other insertions and erasures may alter various storage addresses within the sequence. In all such cases, iterators or references that point at altered portions of the sequence become invalid. If no reallocation happens, only iterators and references before the insertion/deletion point remain valid.
The vector<bool> class is a full specialization of the class template vector for elements of type bool . It has an allocator for the underlying type used by the specialization.
The vector<bool> reference class is a nested class whose objects can provide references to elements (single bits) within a vector<bool> object.

Vectors are the same as dynamic arrays with the ability to resize themselves automatically when an element is inserted or deleted, with their storage being handled automatically by the container. Vector elements are placed in contiguous storage so that they can be accessed and traversed using iterators. In vectors, data is inserted at the end. Inserting at the end takes differential time, as sometimes the array may need to be extended. Removing the last element takes only constant time because no resizing happens. Inserting and erasing at the beginning or in the middle is linear in time.
std::vector in C++ is the class template that contains the vector container and its member functions. It is defined inside the <vector> header file. The member functions of the std::vector class provide various functionalities to vector containers.
where the data type is the type of data of each element of the vector. You can remove the std:: if you have already used the std namespace.
We can initialize a vector in the following ways:
This initialization is done with a declaration. Here, we pass the list of elements to the vector constructor to create a vector with the specified elements.
This initialization is also done with declaration. Here, we specify the size of the vector and then initialize every element of the vector with the value.
This initialization is used to create a vector that is an exact copy of other_vec.
Some commonly used member functions of std::vector class are written below:
The time complexity for doing various operations on vectors is-

I understand the semantics of the 2 operations , assign- erases before replacing with supplied values. insert - inserts values at specified location(allocates new memory if necessary).
Apart from this is there any reason to preffer one over the other? Or to put it another way, is there any reason to use assign instead of insert.
assign and insert are only equivalent if the vector is empty to begin with. If the vector is already empty, then it's better to use assign , because insert would falsely hint to the reader that there are existing elements to be preserved.
If you wish to invoke the semantics of assign , call assign - if you wish to invoke the semantics of insert , call insert. They aren't interchangeable.
As for calling them on an empty vector, the only difference is that you don't need to supply an iterator to insert at when you call assign . There may be a performance difference, but that's implementation specific and almost certainly negligable.
assign() will blow away anything that's already in the vector , then add the new elements. insert() doesn't touch any elements already in the vector .
Other than that, if the vector you are modifying starts out empty, there is little difference.
insert() will insert the elements at a particular position. It can be a single value, or multiple values using first and last iterators. Its like inserting more elements in front of a position.
assign() will just assign the values starting at beginning till end as per input agruments "InputIterator first and InputIterator last ". This will remove all existing elements and instead populate the vector with new values as per range provided in its arguments.

C++98; C++11 //range version template <class InputIterator> void assign (InputIterator first, InputIterator last); //fill version void assign (size_type n, const value_type& val);
+1 And note that .assign(beg,end) requires the arbitrary type T be emplace-constructible or move-insertible (the latter for std::vector<T> specifically when the iterator type does not meet forward iterator requirements). The requirements for the assignment operator are different; T must be copy-insertible and copy-assignable. Not that it matters much in the OP's case, but just to note that ...
1. Their return types differ: the operator returns the vector by reference, assign returns void. Technically, the spec for assignment from initializer_list says the elements are "assigned or destroyed ", while assign from initializer_list "replaces elements " ( Table 87 ), but that seems immaterial: actual implementations of one just call the ...
Assign vector content. Assigns new contents to the vector, replacing its current contents, and modifying its size accordingly. C++98. C++11. In the range version (1), the new contents are elements constructed from each of the elements in the range between first and last, in the same order. In the fill version (2), the new contents are n ...
constexpr vector (std::from_range_t, R && rg, const Allocator& alloc = Allocator()); (11) (since C++23) Constructs a new container from a variety of data sources, optionally using a user supplied allocator alloc . 1) Default constructor. Constructs an empty container with a default-constructed allocator. 2) Constructs an empty container with ...
The value of the element being inserted into the vector. init_list The initializer_list containing the elements to insert. Remarks. First, assign erases any existing elements in a vector. Then, assign either inserts a specified range of elements from the original vector into a vector, or it inserts copies of a new specified value element into a ...
Syntax to Declare Vector in C++. std::vector<dataType> vectorName; where the data type is the type of data of each element of the vector. You can remove the std:: if you have already used the std namespace. Initialization of Vector in C++. We can initialize a vector in the following ways: 1. Initialization Using List.
In the range version (1), the new contents are elements constructed from each of the elements in the range between first and last, in the same order. In the fill version (2), the new contents are n elements, each initialized to a copy of val. In the initializer list version (3), the new contents are copies of the values passed as initializer list, in the same order.
1. insert () will insert the elements at a particular position. It can be a single value, or multiple values using first and last iterators. Its like inserting more elements in front of a position. assign () will just assign the values starting at beginning till end as per input agruments "InputIterator first and InputIterator last ".
