+# destroy
+
+**Description** : Destroys the elements of a vector in a given range.
+
+**Example** :
+```cpp
+struct Object{
+    int value;
+    ~Object(){ 
+		std::cout << value << " destructed\n"; 
+	}
+};
+
+std::vector<Object> myVector (8);
+
+//manually giving values to the objects
+
+for(int i = 0; i < 8; i++){
+		myVector[i].value = i;
+	}
+
+//assigning the pointer to a variable for readibility
+
+auto ptr = &myVector;
+
+std::destroy(ptr, ptr + 8);
+```
