+/// Populates a homogeneous container from the given arguments.
+/// All arguments need to be convertible to the first one,
+/// by default std::vector is used as container type.
+///
+/// This method mainly helps to create a homogeneous container from
+/// a runtime known count of continuables which type isn't exactly known.
+/// All continuables which are passed to this function should be originating
+/// from the same source or a method called with the same types of arguments:
+/// ```cpp
+/// auto container = cti::populate(cti::make_ready_continuable(0),
+///                                cti::make_ready_continuable(1)),
+///
+/// for (int i = 2; i < 5; ++i) {
+///   // You may add more continuables to the container afterwards
+///   container.emplace_back(cti::make_ready_continuable(i));
+/// }
+///
+/// cti::when_any(std::move(container))
+///   .then([](int) {
+///     // ...
+///   });
+/// ```
+/// Additionally it is possible to change the targeted container as below:
+/// ```cpp
+/// auto container = cti::populate<std::list>(cti::make_ready_continuable(0),
+///                                           cti::make_ready_continuable(1)),
