(until C++20)
constexpr front_insert_iterator < Container > &
operator = ( typename Container :: value_type && value ) ;
(since C++20)

Inserts the given value value to the container.

1) Results in container - > push_front ( value ) .
2) Results in container - > push_front ( std :: move ( value ) ) .

Parameters

value - the value to insert

Return value

* this

Example

Run this code 
#include <deque>
#include <iostream>
#include <iterator>
int main()
{
    std::deque<int> q;
    std::front_insert_iterator<std::deque<int>> it(q);
    for (int i = 0; i < 10; ++i)
        it = i; // calls q.push_front(i)
    for (auto& elem : q)
        std::cout << elem << ' ';
    std::cout << '\n';
}

Output:
