Defined in header <atomic>
	(1)	(since C++11)
template< class T > T atomic_load( const std::atomic<T>* obj );
template< class T > T atomic_load( const volatile std::atomic<T>* obj );
			(2)	(since C++11)
template< class T > T atomic_load_explicit( const std::atomic<T>* obj,                         std::memory_order order );
template< class T > T atomic_load_explicit( const volatile std::atomic<T>* obj,                         std::memory_order order );

1) Atomically obtains the value pointed to by obj as if by obj->load()

2) Atomically obtains the value pointed to by obj as if by obj->load(order)

Parameters

obj	-	pointer to the atomic object to modify
order	-	the memory synchronization ordering for this operation: only std::memory_order_relaxed, std::memory_order_consume, std::memory_order_acquire and std::memory_order_seq_cst are permitted.

Return value

The value that is held by the atomic object pointed to by obj

Exceptions
