:mrdocs:

Remove from this table the objects starting at the specified `first` position up to, but not including, the specified `last` position, and return `last`. This method invalidates all iterators, and references to the removed element. The behavior is undefined unless `first` and `last` either refer to elements in this table or are the `end` iterator, and the `first` position is at or before the `last` position in the iteration sequence provided by this container.
