Notable Changes to Issues and Papers as Moved

LWG Motion 13 (N4531)

Some changes in N4531 were retargeted to the Fundamentals TS. N4531 contains changes that are targeted at the C++17 working draft, as well as changes that are targeted at the TS. While the wording of Motion 13 is not clear, I understand it to direct that all changes be applied to the TS, because there was no corresponding motion to apply changes to C++17, and the TS changes on their own would be nonsensical (this was LWG's expressed intent when the paper was discussed there).

I adjusted the headers, section numbers, and normative references to reflect this retargeting, and created a new section titled "Shuffle", to parallel [alg.random.shuffle] in the C++ working draft.

N4531's proposed wording for [alg.random.shuffle] is structured to jointly specify both the existing 3-argument shuffle() function and the 2-argument function introduced by the paper. However, I do not interpret Motion 13 as directing me to clone the 3-argument function (which is not normatively affected) into the TS, so I had to substantially rephrase [alg.random.shuffle] as-edited, so that it covers only the 2-argument function.

LWG Motion 14 (P0013R1)

I revised the wording to make it explicit that the value member must be a static data member. I also dropped redundant mentions of the _v variable templates, since they are fully specified by the synopsis. I also renamed some meta-variables for clarity, and made minor changes to the formatting.

Notable editorial changes

To avoid confusion with the new "Shuffle" section, the existing section "Shuffling and sampling" (which contains no shuffling-related content) was renamed to "Sampling".
