vector of const ref to vector> assignment does not compile

Question

We can't make a vector of references.

See already answered question.

You cannot have a vector of references the same way you cannot have an array of references. — DeiDei, Oct 05 '17 at 11:40
Just like you can't have a reference to a reference you also cannot have a container of references, — NathanOliver, Oct 05 '17 at 11:42
I suspect that you believe that C++ references are like references in some other languages, like Java, C#, or Python. The only thing they really have in common is the name. — molbdnilo, Oct 05 '17 at 11:51

vector doesn't support reference. you might use std::reference_wrapper or pointers instead.
