From cppreference.com
< cpp‎ | utility‎ | optional

Defined in header `<optional>` |  |
template< class T > void swap( optional<T>& lhs, optional<T>& rhs ) noexcept(/* see below */); |  | (since C++17)

Overloads the std::swap algorithm for std::optional. Exchanges the state of `lhs` with that of `rhs`. Effectively calls lhs.swap(rhs).

This function template does not participate in overload resolution unless std::is_move_constructible_v<T> and std::is_swappable_v<T> are both true.

### Parameters

lhs, rhs | - | `optional` objects whose states to swap

### Return value

(none)

### Exceptions

`noexcept` specification:
noexcept(noexcept(lhs.swap(rhs)))
