template<class RandomAccessIterator> void partial_sort(RandomAccessIterator first, RandomAccessIterator middle, RandomAccessIterator last); template<class ExecutionPolicy, class RandomAccessIterator> void partial_sort(ExecutionPolicy&& exec, RandomAccessIterator first, RandomAccessIterator middle, RandomAccessIterator last); template<class RandomAccessIterator, class Compare> void partial_sort(RandomAccessIterator first, RandomAccessIterator middle, RandomAccessIterator last, Compare comp); template<class ExecutionPolicy, class RandomAccessIterator, class Compare> void partial_sort(ExecutionPolicy&& exec, RandomAccessIterator first, RandomAccessIterator middle, RandomAccessIterator last, Compare comp);
Requires: RandomAccessIterator shall satisfy the requirements of ValueSwappable ([swappable.requirements]).
The type of *first shall satisfy the requirements of MoveConstructible (Table 23) and of MoveAssignable (Table 25).
Effects: Places the first middle - first sorted elements from the range [first, last) into the range [first, middle).
The rest of the elements in the range [middle, last) are placed in an unspecified order.
Complexity: Approximately (last - first) * log(middle - first) comparisons.
