NAME¶

std::unordered_multiset::empty - std::unordered_multiset::empty

Synopsis¶

bool empty() const noexcept; (since C++11)
(until C++20)
[[nodiscard]] bool empty() const noexcept; (since C++20)

Checks if the container has no elements, i.e. whether begin() == end().

Parameters¶

(none)

Return value¶

true if the container is empty, false otherwise

Complexity¶

Constant.

Example¶

The following code uses empty to check if a std::unordered_multiset<int> contains
any elements:

// Run this code

#include <unordered_set>
#include <iostream>

int main()
{
std::unordered_multiset<int> numbers;
std::cout << std::boolalpha;
std::cout << "Initially, numbers.empty(): " << numbers.empty() << '\n';

numbers.insert(42);
numbers.insert(13317);
std::cout << "After adding elements, numbers.empty(): " << numbers.empty() << '\n';
}

Output:¶

Initially, numbers.empty(): true
After adding elements, numbers.empty(): false
