std::flat_map::equal_range(3) C++ Standard Libary std::flat_map::equal_range(3)

NAME

std::flat_map::equal_range - std::flat_map::equal_range

Synopsis


std::pair<iterator, iterator> equal_range( const Key& key ); (1) (since C++23)
std::pair<const_iterator, const_iterator> equal_range( const Key& (2) (since C++23)
key ) const;
template< class K > (3) (since C++23)
std::pair<iterator, iterator> equal_range( const K& x );
template< class K >
std::pair<const_iterator, const_iterator> equal_range( const K& x (4) (since C++23)
) const;


Returns a range containing all elements with the given key in the container. The
range is defined by two iterators, one pointing to the first element that is not
less than key and another pointing to the first element greater than key.
Alternatively, the first iterator may be obtained with lower_bound(), and the second
with upper_bound().


1,2) Compares the keys to key.
3,4) Compares the keys to the value x. This overload participates in overload
resolution only if the qualified-id Compare::is_transparent is valid and denotes a
type. It allows calling this function without constructing an instance of Key.

Parameters


key - key value to compare the elements to
x - alternative value that can be compared to Key

Return value


std::pair containing a pair of iterators defining the wanted range: the first
pointing to the first element that is not less than key and the second pointing to
the first element greater than key.


If there are no elements not less than key, past-the-end (see end()) iterator is
returned as the first element. Similarly if there are no elements greater than key,
past-the-end iterator is returned as the second element.

Complexity


Logarithmic in the size of the container.

Example

// Run this code


#include <iostream>
#include <flat_map>


int main()
{
const std::flat_map<int, const char*> m
{
{0, "zero"},
{1, "one"},
{2, "two"}
};


auto p = m.equal_range(1);
for (auto& q = p.first; q != p.second; ++q)
std::cout << "m[" << q->first << "] = " << q->second << '\n';


if (p.second == m.find(2))
std::cout << "end of equal_range (p.second) is one-past p.first\n";
else
std::cout << "unexpected; p.second expected to be one-past p.first\n";


auto pp = m.equal_range(-1);
if (pp.first == m.begin())
std::cout << "pp.first is iterator to first not-less than -1\n";
else
std::cout << "unexpected pp.first\n";


if (pp.second == m.begin())
std::cout << "pp.second is iterator to first element greater-than -1\n";
else
std::cout << "unexpected pp.second\n";


auto ppp = m.equal_range(3);
if (ppp.first == m.end())
std::cout << "ppp.first is iterator to first not-less than 3\n";
else
std::cout << "unexpected ppp.first\n";


if (ppp.second == m.end())
std::cout << "ppp.second is iterator to first element greater-than 3\n";
else
std::cout << "unexpected ppp.second\n";
}

Output:


m[1] = one
end of equal_range (p.second) is one-past p.first
pp.first is iterator to first not-less than -1
pp.second is iterator to first element greater-than -1
ppp.first is iterator to first not-less than 3
ppp.second is iterator to first element greater-than 3
