23.2 Requirements [container.requirements]

23.2.1 Preamble [container.requirements.pre]

Containers are objects that store other objects.
They control allocation and deallocation of these objects through constructors, destructors, insert and erase operations.
All of the complexity requirements in this Clause are stated solely in terms of the number of operations on the contained objects.
[Example 1: 
The copy constructor of type vector<vector<int>> has linear complexity, even though the complexity of copying each contained vector<int> is itself linear.
— end example]
Allocator-aware containers ([container.alloc.reqmts]) other than basic_string construct elements using the function allocator_traits<allocator_type>​::​rebind_traits<U>​::​​construct and destroy elements using the function allocator_traits<allocator_type>​::​rebind_traits<U>​::​​destroy ([allocator.traits.members]), where U is either allocator_type​::​value_type or an internal type used by the container.
These functions are called only for the container's element type, not for internal types used by the container.
[Note 1: 
This means, for example, that a node-based container would need to construct nodes containing aligned buffers and call construct to place the element into the buffer.
— end note]

23.2.2 General containers [container.requirements.general]

23.2.2.1 Introduction [container.intro.reqmts]

In [container.requirements.general],
  • X denotes a container class containing objects of type T,
  • a denotes a value of type X,
  • b and c denote values of type (possibly const) X,
  • i and j denote values of type (possibly const) X​::​iterator,
  • u denotes an identifier,
  • v denotes an lvalue of type (possibly const) X or an rvalue of type const X,
  • s and t denote non-const lvalues of type X, and
  • rv denotes a non-const rvalue of type X.
The following exposition-only concept is used in the definition of containers: template<class R, class T> concept container-compatible-range = // exposition only ranges::input_range<R> && convertible_to<ranges::range_reference_t<R>, T>;

23.2.2.2 Container requirements [container.reqmts]

A type X meets the container requirements if the following types, statements, and expressions are well-formed and have the specified semantics.
typename X::value_type
Result: T
Preconditions: T is Cpp17Erasable from X (see [container.alloc.reqmts], below).
typename X::reference
Result: T&
typename X::const_reference
Result: const T&
typename X::iterator
Result: A type that meets the forward iterator requirements ([forward.iterators]) with value type T.
The type X​::​iterator is convertible to X​::​const_iterator.
typename X::const_iterator
Result: A type that meets the requirements of a constant iterator and those of a forward iterator with value type T.
typename X::difference_type
Result: A signed integer type, identical to the difference type of X​::​iterator and X​::​const_iterator.
typename X::size_type
Result: An unsigned integer type that can represent any non-negative value of X​::​difference_type.
X u; X u = X();
Postconditions: u.empty()
Complexity: Constant.
X u(v); X u = v;
Preconditions: T is Cpp17CopyInsertable into X (see below).
Postconditions: u == v.
Complexity: Linear.
X u(rv); X u = rv;
Postconditions: u is equal to the value that rv had before this construction.
Complexity: Linear for array and inplace_vector and constant for all other standard containers.
t = v;
Result: X&.
Postconditions: t == v.
Complexity: Linear.
t = rv
Result: X&.
Effects: All existing elements of t are either move assigned to or destroyed.
Postconditions: If t and rv do not refer to the same object, t is equal to the value that rv had before this assignment.
Complexity: Linear.
a.~X()
Result: void.
Effects: Destroys every element of a; any memory obtained is deallocated.
Complexity: Linear.
b.begin()
Result: iterator; const_iterator for constant b.
Returns: An iterator referring to the first element in the container.
Complexity: Constant.
b.end()
Result: iterator; const_iterator for constant b.
Returns: An iterator which is the past-the-end value for the container.
Complexity: Constant.
b.cbegin()
Result: const_iterator.
Returns: const_cast<X const&>(b).begin()
Complexity: Constant.
b.cend()
Result: const_iterator.
Returns: const_cast<X const&>(b).end()
Complexity: Constant.
i <=> j
Result: strong_ordering.
Constraints: X​::​iterator meets the random access iterator requirements.
Complexity: Constant.
c == b
Preconditions: T meets the Cpp17EqualityComparable requirements.
Result: bool.
Returns: equal(c.begin(), c.end(), b.begin(), b.end())
[Note 1: 
The algorithm equal is defined in [alg.equal].
— end note]
Complexity: Constant if c.size() != b.size(), linear otherwise.
Remarks: == is an equivalence relation.
c != b
Effects: Equivalent to !(c == b).
t.swap(s)
Result: void.
Effects: Exchanges the contents of t and s.
Complexity: Linear for array and inplace_vector, and constant for all other standard containers.
swap(t, s)
Effects: Equivalent to t.swap(s).
c.size()
Result: size_type.
Returns: distance(c.begin(), c.end()), i.e., the number of elements in the container.
Complexity: Constant.
Remarks: The number of elements is defined by the rules of constructors, inserts, and erases.
c.max_size()
Result: size_type.
Returns: distance(begin(), end()) for the largest possible container.
Complexity: Constant.
c.empty()
Result: bool.
Returns: c.begin() == c.end()
Complexity: Constant.
Remarks: If the container is empty, then c.empty() is true.
In the expressions i == j i != j i < j i <= j i >= j i > j i <=> j i - j where i and j denote objects of a container's iterator type, either or both may be replaced by an object of the container's const_iterator type referring to the same element with no change in semantics.
Unless otherwise specified, all containers defined in this Clause obtain memory using an allocator (see [allocator.requirements]).
[Note 2: 
In particular, containers and iterators do not store references to allocated elements other than through the allocator's pointer type, i.e., as objects of type P or pointer_traits<P>​::​template rebind<unspecified>, where P is allocator_traits<allocator_type>​::​pointer.
— end note]
Copy constructors for these container types obtain an allocator by calling allocator_traits<allocator_type>​::​select_on_container_copy_construction on the allocator belonging to the container being copied.
Move constructors obtain an allocator by move construction from the allocator belonging to the container being moved.
Such move construction of the allocator shall not exit via an exception.
All other constructors for these container types take a const allocator_type& argument.
[Note 3: 
If an invocation of a constructor uses the default value of an optional allocator argument, then the allocator type must support value-initialization.
— end note]
A copy of this allocator is used for any memory allocation and element construction performed, by these constructors and by all member functions, during the lifetime of each container object or until the allocator is replaced.
The allocator may be replaced only via assignment or swap().
Allocator replacement is performed by copy assignment, move assignment, or swapping of the allocator only if
  • allocator_traits<allocator_type>​::​propagate_on_container_copy_assignment​::​value,
  • allocator_traits<allocator_type>​::​propagate_on_container_move_assignment​::​value, or
  • allocator_traits<allocator_type>​::​propagate_on_container_swap​::​value
is true within the implementation of the corresponding container operation.
In all container types defined in this Clause, the member get_allocator() returns a copy of the allocator used to construct the container or, if that allocator has been replaced, a copy of the most recent replacement.
The expression a.swap(b), for containers a and b of a standard container type other than array and inplace_vector, shall exchange the values of a and b without invoking any move, copy, or swap operations on the individual container elements.
Any Compare, Pred, or Hash types belonging to a and b shall meet the Cpp17Swappable requirements and shall be exchanged by calling swap as described in [swappable.requirements].
If allocator_traits<allocator_type>​::​propagate_on_container_swap​::​value is true, then allocator_type shall meet the Cpp17Swappable requirements and the allocators of a and b shall also be exchanged by calling swap as described in [swappable.requirements].
Otherwise, the allocators shall not be swapped, and the behavior is undefined unless a.get_allocator() == b.get_allocator().
Every iterator referring to an element in one container before the swap shall refer to the same element in the other container after the swap.
It is unspecified whether an iterator with value a.end() before the swap will have value b.end() after the swap.
Unless otherwise specified (see [associative.reqmts.except], [unord.req.except], [deque.modifiers], [inplace.vector.modifiers], and [vector.modifiers]) all container types defined in this Clause meet the following additional requirements:
  • If an exception is thrown by an insert() or emplace() function while inserting a single element, that function has no effects.
  • If an exception is thrown by a push_back(), push_front(), emplace_back(), or emplace_front() function, that function has no effects.
  • No erase(), clear(), pop_back() or pop_front() function throws an exception.
  • No copy constructor or assignment operator of a returned iterator throws an exception.
  • No swap() function throws an exception.
  • No swap() function invalidates any references, pointers, or iterators referring to the elements of the containers being swapped.
    [Note 4: 
    The end() iterator does not refer to any element, so it can be invalidated.
    — end note]
Unless otherwise specified (either explicitly or by defining a function in terms of other functions), invoking a container member function or passing a container as an argument to a library function shall not invalidate iterators to, or change the values of, objects within that container.
A contiguous container is a container whose member types iterator and const_iterator meet the Cpp17RandomAccessIterator requirements ([random.access.iterators]) and model contiguous_iterator ([iterator.concept.contiguous]).
The behavior of certain container member functions and deduction guides depends on whether types qualify as input iterators or allocators.
The extent to which an implementation determines that a type cannot be an input iterator is unspecified, except that as a minimum integral types shall not qualify as input iterators.
Likewise, the extent to which an implementation determines that a type cannot be an allocator is unspecified, except that as a minimum a type A shall not qualify as an allocator unless it meets both of the following conditions:
  • The qualified-id A​::​value_type is valid and denotes a type ([temp.deduct]).
  • The expression declval<A&>().allocate(size_t{}) is well-formed when treated as an unevaluated operand.

23.2.2.3 Reversible container requirements [container.rev.reqmts]

A type X meets the reversible container requirements if X meets the container requirements, the iterator type of X belongs to the bidirectional or random access iterator categories ([iterator.requirements]), and the following types and expressions are well-formed and have the specified semantics.
typename X::reverse_iterator
Result: The type reverse_iterator<X​::​iterator>, an iterator type whose value type is T.
typename X::const_reverse_iterator
Result: The type reverse_iterator<X​::​const_iterator>, a constant iterator type whose value type is T.
a.rbegin()
Result: reverse_iterator; const_reverse_iterator for constant a.
Returns: reverse_iterator(end())
Complexity: Constant.
a.rend()
Result: reverse_iterator; const_reverse_iterator for constant a.
Returns: reverse_iterator(begin())
Complexity: Constant.
a.crbegin()
Result: const_reverse_iterator.
Returns: const_cast<X const&>(a).rbegin()
Complexity: Constant.
a.crend()
Result: const_reverse_iterator.
Returns: const_cast<X const&>(a).rend()
Complexity: Constant.

23.2.2.4 Optional container requirements [container.opt.reqmts]

The following operations are provided for some types of containers but not others.
Those containers for which the listed operations are provided shall implement the semantics as described unless otherwise stated.
If the iterators passed to lexicographical_compare_three_way meet the constexpr iterator requirements ([iterator.requirements.general]) then the operations described below are implemented by constexpr functions.
a <=> b
Result: synth-three-way-result<X​::​value_type>.
Preconditions: Either T models three_way_comparable, or < is defined for values of type (possibly const) T and < is a total ordering relationship.
Returns: lexicographical_compare_three_way(a.begin(), a.end(), b.begin(), b.end(),
synth-three-way)
[Note 1: 
The algorithm lexicographical_compare_three_way is defined in [algorithms].
— end note]
Complexity: Linear.

23.2.2.5 Allocator-aware containers [container.alloc.reqmts]

Except for array and inplace_vector, all of the containers defined in [containers], [stacktrace.basic], [basic.string], and [re.results] meet the additional requirements of an allocator-aware container, as described below.
Given an allocator type A and given a container type X having a value_type identical to T and an allocator_type identical to allocator_traits<A>​::​rebind_alloc<T> and given an lvalue m of type A, a pointer p of type T*, an expression v that denotes an lvalue of type T or const T or an rvalue of type const T, and an rvalue rv of type T, the following terms are defined.
If X is not allocator-aware or is a specialization of basic_string, the terms below are defined as if A were allocator<T> — no allocator object needs to be created and user specializations of allocator<T> are not instantiated:
  • T is Cpp17DefaultInsertable into X means that the following expression is well-formed: allocator_traits<A>::construct(m, p)
  • An element of X is default-inserted if it is initialized by evaluation of the expression allocator_traits<A>::construct(m, p) where p is the address of the uninitialized storage for the element allocated within X.
  • T is Cpp17MoveInsertable into X means that the following expression is well-formed: allocator_traits<A>::construct(m, p, rv) and its evaluation causes the following postcondition to hold: The value of *p is equivalent to the value of rv before the evaluation.
    [Note 1: 
    rv remains a valid object.
    Its state is unspecified.
    — end note]
  • T is Cpp17CopyInsertable into X means that, in addition to T being Cpp17MoveInsertable into X, the following expression is well-formed: allocator_traits<A>::construct(m, p, v) and its evaluation causes the following postcondition to hold: The value of v is unchanged and is equivalent to *p.
  • T is Cpp17EmplaceConstructible into X from args, for zero or more arguments args, means that the following expression is well-formed: allocator_traits<A>::construct(m, p, args)
  • T is Cpp17Erasable from X means that the following expression is well-formed: allocator_traits<A>::destroy(m, p)
[Note 2: 
A container calls allocator_traits<A>​::​construct(m, p, args) to construct an element at p using args, with m == get_allocator().
The default construct in allocator will call ​::​new((void*)p) T(args), but specialized allocators can choose a different definition.
— end note]
In this subclause,
  • X denotes an allocator-aware container class with a value_type of T using an allocator of type A,
  • u denotes a variable,
  • a and b denote non-const lvalues of type X,
  • c denotes an lvalue of type const X,
  • t denotes an lvalue or a const rvalue of type X,
  • rv denotes a non-const rvalue of type X, and
  • m is a value of type A.
A type X meets the allocator-aware container requirements if X meets the container requirements and the following types, statements, and expressions are well-formed and have the specified semantics.
typename X::allocator_type
Result: A
Mandates: allocator_type​::​value_type is the same as X​::​value_type.
c.get_allocator()
Result: A
Complexity: Constant.
X u; X u = X();
Preconditions: A meets the Cpp17DefaultConstructible requirements.
Postconditions: u.empty() returns true, u.get_allocator() == A().
Complexity: Constant.
X u(m);
Postconditions: u.empty() returns true, u.get_allocator() == m.
Complexity: Constant.
X u(t, m);
Preconditions: T is Cpp17CopyInsertable into X.
Postconditions: u == t, u.get_allocator() == m
Complexity: Linear.
X u(rv);
Postconditions: u has the same elements as rv had before this construction; the value of u.get_allocator() is the same as the value of rv.get_allocator() before this construction.
Complexity: Constant.
X u(rv, m);
Preconditions: T is Cpp17MoveInsertable into X.
Postconditions: u has the same elements, or copies of the elements, that rv had before this construction, u.get_allocator() == m.
Complexity: Constant if m == rv.get_allocator(), otherwise linear.
a = t
Result: X&.
Preconditions: T is Cpp17CopyInsertable into X and Cpp17CopyAssignable.
Postconditions: a == t is true.
Complexity: Linear.
a = rv
Result: X&.
Preconditions: If allocator_traits<allocator_type>​::​propagate_on_container_move_assignment​::​value is false, T is Cpp17MoveInsertable into X and Cpp17MoveAssignable.
Effects: All existing elements of a are either move assigned to or destroyed.
Postconditions: If a and rv do not refer to the same object, a is equal to the value that rv had before this assignment.
Complexity: Linear.
a.swap(b)
Result: void
Effects: Exchanges the contents of a and b.
Complexity: Constant.

23.2.3 Container data races [container.requirements.dataraces]

For purposes of avoiding data races ([res.on.data.races]), implementations shall consider the following functions to be const: begin, end, rbegin, rend, front, back, data, find, lower_bound, upper_bound, equal_range, at and, except in associative or unordered associative containers, operator[].
Notwithstanding [res.on.data.races], implementations are required to avoid data races when the contents of the contained object in different elements in the same container, excepting vector<bool>, are modified concurrently.
[Note 1: 
For a vector<int> x with a size greater than one, x[1] = 5 and *x.begin() = 10 can be executed concurrently without a data race, but x[0] = 5 and *x.begin() = 10 executed concurrently can result in a data race.
As an exception to the general rule, for a vector<bool> y, y[0] = true can race with y[1] = true.
— end note]

23.2.4 Sequence containers [sequence.reqmts]

A sequence container organizes a finite set of objects, all of the same type, into a strictly linear arrangement.
The library provides the following basic kinds of sequence containers: vector, inplace_vector, forward_list, list, and deque.
In addition, array is provided as a sequence container which provides limited sequence operations because it has a fixed number of elements.
The library also provides container adaptors that make it easy to construct abstract data types, such as stacks, queues, flat_maps, flat_multimaps, flat_sets, or flat_multisets, out of the basic sequence container kinds (or out of other program-defined sequence containers).
In this subclause,
  • X denotes a sequence container class,
  • a denotes a value of type X containing elements of type T,
  • u denotes the name of a variable being declared,
  • A denotes X​::​allocator_type if the qualified-id X​::​allocator_type is valid and denotes a type ([temp.deduct]) and allocator<T> if it doesn't,
  • i and j denote iterators that meet the Cpp17InputIterator requirements and refer to elements implicitly convertible to value_type,
  • [i, j) denotes a valid range,
  • rg denotes a value of a type R that models container-compatible-range<T>,
  • il designates an object of type initializer_list<value_type>,
  • n denotes a value of type X​::​size_type,
  • p denotes a valid constant iterator to a,
  • q denotes a valid dereferenceable constant iterator to a,
  • [q1, q2) denotes a valid range of constant iterators in a,
  • t denotes an lvalue or a const rvalue of X​::​value_type, and
  • rv denotes a non-const rvalue of X​::​value_type.
  • Args denotes a template parameter pack;
  • args denotes a function parameter pack with the pattern Args&&.
The complexities of the expressions are sequence dependent.
A type X meets the sequence container requirements if X meets the container requirements and the following statements and expressions are well-formed and have the specified semantics.
X u(n, t);

For every sequence container defined in this Clause and in [strings]:
  • If the constructor template<class InputIterator> X(InputIterator first, InputIterator last, const allocator_type& alloc = allocator_type()); is called with a type InputIterator that does not qualify as an input iterator, then the constructor shall not participate in overload resolution.
  • If the member functions of the forms: template<class InputIterator> return-type F(const_iterator p, InputIterator first, InputIterator last); // such as insert template<class InputIterator> return-type F(InputIterator first, InputIterator last); // such as append, assign template<class InputIterator> return-type F(const_iterator i1, const_iterator i2, InputIterator first, InputIterator last); // such as replace are called with a type InputIterator that does not qualify as an input iterator, then these functions shall not participate in overload resolution.
  • A deduction guide for a sequence container shall not participate in overload resolution if it has an InputIterator template parameter and a type that does not qualify as an input iterator is deduced for that parameter, or if it has an Allocator template parameter and a type that does not qualify as an allocator is deduced for that parameter.
The following operations are provided for some types of sequence containers but not others.
Operations other than prepend_range and append_range are implemented so as to take amortized constant time.

23.2.5 Node handles [container.node]

23.2.5.1 Overview [container.node.overview]

A node handle is an object that accepts ownership of a single element from an associative container ([associative.reqmts]) or an unordered associative container ([unord.req]).
It may be used to transfer that ownership to another container with compatible nodes.
Containers with compatible nodes have the same node handle type.
Elements may be transferred in either direction between container types in the same row of Table 70.
Table 70: Container types with compatible nodes [tab:container.node.compat]
map<K, T, C1, A>
map<K, T, C2, A>
map<K, T, C1, A>
multimap<K, T, C2, A>
set<K, C1, A>
set<K, C2, A>
set<K, C1, A>
multiset<K, C2, A>
unordered_map<K, T, H1, E1, A>
unordered_map<K, T, H2, E2, A>
unordered_map<K, T, H1, E1, A>
unordered_multimap<K, T, H2, E2, A>
unordered_set<K, H1, E1, A>
unordered_set<K, H2, E2, A>
unordered_set<K, H1, E1, A>
unordered_multiset<K, H2, E2, A>
If a node handle is not empty, then it contains an allocator that is equal to the allocator of the container when the element was extracted.
If a node handle is empty, it contains no allocator.
Class node-handle is for exposition only.
If a user-defined specialization of pair exists for pair<const Key, T> or pair<Key, T>, where Key is the container's key_type and T is the container's mapped_type, the behavior of operations involving node handles is undefined.
template<unspecified> class node-handle { public: // These type declarations are described in [associative.reqmts] and [unord.req]. using value_type = see below; // not present for map containers using key_type = see below; // not present for set containers using mapped_type = see below; // not present for set containers using allocator_type = see below; private: using container_node_type = unspecified; // exposition only using ator_traits = allocator_traits<allocator_type>; // exposition only typename ator_traits::template rebind_traits<container_node_type>::pointer ptr_; // exposition only optional<allocator_type> alloc_; // exposition only public: // [container.node.cons], constructors, copy, and assignment constexpr node-handle() noexcept : ptr_(), alloc_() {} node-handle(node-handle&&) noexcept; node-handle& operator=(node-handle&&); // [container.node.dtor], destructor ~node-handle(); // [container.node.observers], observers value_type& value() const; // not present for map containers key_type& key() const; // not present for set containers mapped_type& mapped() const; // not present for set containers allocator_type get_allocator() const; explicit operator bool() const noexcept; bool empty() const noexcept; // [container.node.modifiers], modifiers void swap(node-handle&) noexcept(ator_traits::propagate_on_container_swap::value || ator_traits::is_always_equal::value); friend void swap(node-handle& x, node-handle& y) noexcept(noexcept(x.swap(y))) { x.swap(y); } };

23.2.5.2 Constructors, copy, and assignment [container.node.cons]

node-handle(node-handle&& nh) noexcept;
Effects: Constructs a node-handle object initializing ptr_ with nh.ptr_.

Effects:
  • If ptr_ != nullptr, destroys the value_type subobject in the container_node_type object pointed to by ptr_ by calling ator_traits​::​destroy, then deallocates ptr_ by calling ator_traits​::​template rebind_traits<container_node_type>​::​deallocate.
  • Assigns nh.ptr_ to ptr_.
  • If !alloc_ or ator_traits​::​propagate_on_container_move_assignment​::​value is true, move assigns nh.alloc_ to alloc_.
  • Assigns nullptr to nh.ptr_ and assigns nullopt to nh.alloc_.
Returns: *this.
Throws: Nothing.

23.2.5.3 Destructor [container.node.dtor]

Preconditions: !alloc_, or !nh.alloc_, or ator_traits​::​propagate_on_container_swap​::​value is true, or alloc_ == nh.alloc_.
Effects: Calls swap(ptr_, nh.ptr_).
If !alloc_, or !nh.alloc_, or ator_traits​::​propagate_on_container_swap​::​value is true calls swap(alloc_, nh.alloc_).

23.2.6 Insert return type [container.insert.return]

The associative containers with unique keys and the unordered containers with unique keys have a member function insert that returns a nested type insert_return_type.
That return type is a specialization of the template specified in this subclause.
template<class Iterator, class NodeType> struct insert-return-type { Iterator position; bool inserted; NodeType node; };
The name insert-return-type is exposition only.
insert-return-type has the template parameters, data members, and special members specified above.
It has no base classes or members other than those specified.

23.2.7 Associative containers [associative.reqmts]

23.2.7.1 General [associative.reqmts.general]

Associative containers provide fast retrieval of data based on keys.
The library provides four basic kinds of associative containers: set, multiset, map and multimap.
The library also provides container adaptors that make it easy to construct abstract data types, such as flat_maps, flat_multimaps, flat_sets, or flat_multisets, out of the basic sequence container kinds (or out of other program-defined sequence containers).
Each associative container is parameterized on Key and an ordering relation Compare that induces a strict weak ordering ([alg.sorting]) on elements of Key.
In addition, map and multimap associate an arbitrary mapped type T with the Key.
The object of type Compare is called the comparison object of a container.
The phrase “equivalence of keys” means the equivalence relation imposed by the comparison object.
That is, two keys k1 and k2 are considered to be equivalent if for the comparison object comp, comp(k1, k2) == false && comp(k2, k1) == false.
[Note 1: 
This is not necessarily the same as the result of k1 == k2.
— end note]
For any two keys k1 and k2 in the same container, calling comp(k1, k2) shall always return the same value.
An associative container supports unique keys if it may contain at most one element for each key.
Otherwise, it supports equivalent keys.
The set and map classes support unique keys; the multiset and multimap classes support equivalent keys.
For multiset and multimap, insert, emplace, and erase preserve the relative ordering of equivalent elements.
For set and multiset the value type is the same as the key type.
For map and multimap it is equal to pair<const Key, T>.
iterator of an associative container is of the bidirectional iterator category.
For associative containers where the value type is the same as the key type, both iterator and const_iterator are constant iterators.
It is unspecified whether or not iterator and const_iterator are the same type.
[Note 2: 
iterator and const_iterator have identical semantics in this case, and iterator is convertible to const_iterator.
Users can avoid violating the one-definition rule by always using const_iterator in their function parameter lists.

The insert, insert_range, and emplace members shall not affect the validity of iterators and references to the container, and the erase members shall invalidate only iterators and references to the erased elements.
The extract members invalidate only iterators to the removed element; pointers and references to the removed element remain valid.
However, accessing the element through such pointers and references while the element is owned by a node_type is undefined behavior.
References and pointers to an element obtained while it is owned by a node_type are invalidated if the element is successfully inserted.
The fundamental property of iterators of associative containers is that they iterate through the containers in the non-descending order of keys where non-descending is defined by the comparison that was used to construct them.
For any two dereferenceable iterators i and j such that distance from i to j is positive, the following condition holds: value_comp(*j, *i) == false
For associative containers with unique keys the stronger condition holds: value_comp(*i, *j) != false
When an associative container is constructed by passing a comparison object the container shall not store a pointer or reference to the passed object, even if that object is passed by reference.
When an associative container is copied, through either a copy constructor or an assignment operator, the target container shall then use the comparison object from the container being copied, as if that comparison object had been passed to the target container in its constructor.
The member function templates find, count, contains, lower_bound, upper_bound, equal_range, erase, and extract shall not participate in overload resolution unless the qualified-id Compare​::​is_transparent is valid and denotes a type ([temp.deduct]).
Additionally, the member function templates extract and erase shall not participate in overload resolution if is_convertible_v<K&&, iterator> || is_convertible_v<K&&, const_iterator> is true, where K is the type substituted as the first template argument.
A deduction guide for an associative container shall not participate in overload resolution if any of the following are true:
  • It has an InputIterator template parameter and a type that does not qualify as an input iterator is deduced for that parameter.
  • It has an Allocator template parameter and a type that does not qualify as an allocator is deduced for that parameter.
  • It has a Compare template parameter and a type that qualifies as an allocator is deduced for that parameter.

23.2.7.2 Exception safety guarantees [associative.reqmts.except]

For associative containers, no clear() function throws an exception.
erase(k) does not throw an exception unless that exception is thrown by the container's Compare object (if any).
For associative containers, if an exception is thrown by any operation from within an insert or emplace function inserting a single element, the insertion has no effect.
For associative containers, no swap function throws an exception unless that exception is thrown by the swap of the container's Compare object (if any).

23.2.8 Unordered associative containers [unord.req]

23.2.8.1 General [unord.req.general]

Unordered associative containers provide an ability for fast retrieval of data based on keys.
The worst-case complexity for most operations is linear, but the average case is much faster.
The library provides four unordered associative containers: unordered_set, unordered_map, unordered_multiset, and unordered_multimap.
Unordered associative containers conform to the requirements for Containers ([container.requirements]), except that the expressions a == b and a != b have different semantics than for the other container types.
Each unordered associative container is parameterized by Key, by a function object type Hash that meets the Cpp17Hash requirements ([hash.requirements]) and acts as a hash function for argument values of type Key, and by a binary predicate Pred that induces an equivalence relation on values of type Key.
Additionally, unordered_map and unordered_multimap associate an arbitrary mapped type T with the Key.
The container's object of type Hash — denoted by hash — is called the hash function of the container.
The container's object of type Pred — denoted by pred — is called the key equality predicate of the container.
Two values k1 and k2 are considered equivalent if the container's key equality predicate pred(k1, k2) is valid and returns true when passed those values.
If k1 and k2 are equivalent, the container's hash function shall return the same value for both.
[Note 1: 
Thus, when an unordered associative container is instantiated with a non-default Pred parameter it usually needs a non-default Hash parameter as well.
— end note]
For any two keys k1 and k2 in the same container, calling pred(k1, k2) shall always return the same value.
For any key k in a container, calling hash(k) shall always return the same value.
An unordered associative container supports unique keys if it may contain at most one element for each key.
Otherwise, it supports equivalent keys.
unordered_set and unordered_map support unique keys.
unordered_multiset and unordered_multimap support equivalent keys.
In containers that support equivalent keys, elements with equivalent keys are adjacent to each other in the iteration order of the container.
Thus, although the absolute order of elements in an unordered container is not specified, its elements are grouped into equivalent-key groups such that all elements of each group have equivalent keys.
Mutating operations on unordered containers shall preserve the relative order of elements within each equivalent-key group unless otherwise specified.
For unordered_set and unordered_multiset the value type is the same as the key type.
For unordered_map and unordered_multimap it is pair<const Key, T>.
For unordered containers where the value type is the same as the key type, both iterator and const_iterator are constant iterators.
It is unspecified whether or not iterator and const_iterator are the same type.
[Note 2: 
iterator and const_iterator have identical semantics in this case, and iterator is convertible to const_iterator.
Users can avoid violating the one-definition rule by always using const_iterator in their function parameter lists.
— end note]
The elements of an unordered associative container are organized into buckets.
Keys with the same hash code appear in the same bucket.
The number of buckets is automatically increased as elements are added to an unordered associative container, so that the average number of elements per bucket is kept below a bound.
Rehashing invalidates iterators, changes ordering between elements, and changes which buckets elements appear in, but does not invalidate pointers or references to elements.
For unordered_multiset and unordered_multimap, rehashing preserves the relative ordering of equivalent elements.
In this subclause,
  • X denotes an unordered associative container class,
  • a denotes a value of type X,
  • a2 denotes a value of a type with nodes compatible with type X (Table 70),
  • b denotes a value of type X or const X,
  • a_uniq denotes a value of type X when X supports unique keys,
  • a_eq denotes a value of type X when X supports equivalent keys,
  • a_tran denotes a value of type X or const X when the qualified-ids X​::​key_equal​::​is_transparent and X​::​hasher​::​is_transparent are both valid and denote types ([temp.deduct]),
  • i and j denote input iterators that refer to value_type,
  • [i, j) denotes a valid range,

  • il denotes a value of type initializer_list<value_type>,
  • t denotes a value of type X​::​value_type,
  • k denotes a value of type key_type,
  • hf denotes a value of type hasher or const hasher,
  • eq denotes a value of type key_equal or const key_equal,
  • ke is a value such that
    • eq(r1, ke) == eq(ke, r1),
    • hf(r1) == hf(ke) if eq(r1, ke) is true, and
    • if any two of eq(r1, ke), eq(r2, ke), and eq(r1, r2) are true, then all three are true,
    where r1 and r2 are keys of elements in a_tran,
  • kx is a value such that
    • eq(r1, kx) == eq(kx, r1),
    • hf(r1) == hf(kx) if eq(r1, kx) is true,
    • if any two of eq(r1, kx), eq(r2, kx), and eq(r1, r2) are true, then all three are true, and
    • kx is not convertible to either iterator or const_iterator,
    where r1 and r2 are keys of elements in a_tran,
  • n denotes a value of type size_type,
  • z denotes a value of type float, and
  • nh denotes an rvalue of type X​::​node_type.
A type X meets the unordered associative container requirements if X meets all the requirements of an allocator-aware container ([container.alloc.reqmts]) and the following types, statements, and expressions are well-formed and have the specified semantics, except that for unordered_map and unordered_multimap, the requirements placed on value_type in [container.reqmts] apply instead to key_type and mapped_type.
[Note 3: 
For example, key_type and mapped_type sometimes need to be Cpp17CopyAssignable even though the associated value_type, pair<const key_type, mapped_type>, is not Cpp17CopyAssignable.

Two unordered containers a and b compare equal if a.size() == b.size() and, for every equivalent-key group [Ea1, Ea2) obtained from a.equal_range(Ea1), there exists an equivalent-key group [Eb1, Eb2) obtained from b.equal_range(Ea1), such that is_permutation(Ea1, Ea2, Eb1, Eb2) returns true.
For unordered_set and unordered_map, the complexity of operator== (i.e., the number of calls to the == operator of the value_type, to the predicate returned by key_eq(), and to the hasher returned by hash_function()) is proportional to N in the average case and to in the worst case, where N is a.size().
For unordered_multiset and unordered_multimap, the complexity of operator== is proportional to in the average case and to in the worst case, where N is a.size(), and is the size of the equivalent-key group in a.
However, if the respective elements of each corresponding pair of equivalent-key groups and are arranged in the same order (as is commonly the case, e.g., if a and b are unmodified copies of the same container), then the average-case complexity for unordered_multiset and unordered_multimap becomes proportional to N (but worst-case complexity remains , e.g., for a pathologically bad hash function).
The behavior of a program that uses operator== or operator!= on unordered containers is undefined unless the Pred function object has the same behavior for both containers and the equality comparison function for Key is a refinement197 of the partition into equivalent-key groups produced by Pred.
The iterator types iterator and const_iterator of an unordered associative container are of at least the forward iterator category.
For unordered associative containers where the key type and value type are the same, both iterator and const_iterator are constant iterators.
The insert, insert_range, and emplace members shall not affect the validity of references to container elements, but may invalidate all iterators to the container.
The erase members shall invalidate only iterators and references to the erased elements, and preserve the relative order of the elements that are not erased.
The insert, insert_range, and emplace members shall not affect the validity of iterators if (N+n) <= z * B, where N is the number of elements in the container prior to the insert operation, n is the number of elements inserted, B is the container's bucket count, and z is the container's maximum load factor.
The extract members invalidate only iterators to the removed element, and preserve the relative order of the elements that are not erased; pointers and references to the removed element remain valid.
However, accessing the element through such pointers and references while the element is owned by a node_type is undefined behavior.
References and pointers to an element obtained while it is owned by a node_type are invalidated if the element is successfully inserted.
The member function templates find, count, equal_range, contains, extract, erase, and bucket shall not participate in overload resolution unless the qualified-ids Pred​::​is_transparent and Hash​::​is_transparent are both valid and denote types ([temp.deduct]).
Additionally, the member function templates extract and erase shall not participate in overload resolution if is_convertible_v<K&&, iterator> || is_convertible_v<K&&, const_iterator> is true, where K is the type substituted as the first template argument.
A deduction guide for an unordered associative container shall not participate in overload resolution if any of the following are true:
  • It has an InputIterator template parameter and a type that does not qualify as an input iterator is deduced for that parameter.
  • It has an Allocator template parameter and a type that does not qualify as an allocator is deduced for that parameter.
  • It has a Hash template parameter and an integral type or a type that qualifies as an allocator is deduced for that parameter.
  • It has a Pred template parameter and a type that qualifies as an allocator is deduced for that parameter.

Equality comparison is a refinement of partitioning if no two objects that compare equal fall into different partitions.

23.2.8.2 Exception safety guarantees [unord.req.except]

For unordered associative containers, no clear() function throws an exception.
erase(k) does not throw an exception unless that exception is thrown by the container's Hash or Pred object (if any).
For unordered associative containers, if an exception is thrown by any operation other than the container's hash function from within an insert or emplace function inserting a single element, the insertion has no effect.
For unordered associative containers, no swap function throws an exception unless that exception is thrown by the swap of the container's Hash or Pred object (if any).
For unordered associative containers, if an exception is thrown from within a rehash() function other than by the container's hash function or comparison function, the rehash() function has no effect.

23.3 Sequence containers [sequences]

23.3.1 General [sequences.general]

The headers <array>, <deque>, <forward_list>, <inplace_vector>, <list>, and <vector> define class templates that meet the requirements for sequence containers.
The following exposition-only alias template may appear in deduction guides for sequence containers: template<class InputIterator> using iter-value-type = typename iterator_traits<InputIterator>::value_type; // exposition only

23.3.2 Header <array> synopsis [array.syn]

// mostly freestanding #include <compare> // see [compare.syn] #include <initializer_list> // see [initializer.list.syn] namespace std { // [array], class template array template<class T, size_t N> struct array; // partially freestanding template<class T, size_t N> constexpr bool operator==(const array<T, N>& x, const array<T, N>& y); template<class T, size_t N> constexpr synth-three-way-result<T> operator<=>(const array<T, N>& x, const array<T, N>& y); // [array.special], specialized algorithms template<class T, size_t N> constexpr void swap(array<T, N>& x, array<T, N>& y) noexcept(noexcept(x.swap(y))); // [array.creation], array creation functions template<class T, size_t N> constexpr array<remove_cv_t<T>, N> to_array(T (&a)[N]); template<class T, size_t N> constexpr array<remove_cv_t<T>, N> to_array(T (&&a)[N]); // [array.tuple], tuple interface template<class T> struct tuple_size; template<size_t I, class T> struct tuple_element; template<class T, size_t N> struct tuple_size<array<T, N>>; template<size_t I, class T, size_t N> struct tuple_element<I, array<T, N>>; template<size_t I, class T, size_t N> constexpr T& get(array<T, N>&) noexcept; template<size_t I, class T, size_t N> constexpr T&& get(array<T, N>&&) noexcept; template<size_t I, class T, size_t N> constexpr const T& get(const array<T, N>&) noexcept; template<size_t I, class T, size_t N> constexpr const T&& get(const array<T, N>&&) noexcept; }

23.3.3 Class template array [array]

23.3.3.1 Overview [array.overview]

The header <array> defines a class template for storing fixed-size sequences of objects.
An array is a contiguous container.
An instance of array<T, N> stores N elements of type T, so that size() == N is an invariant.
An array is an aggregate that can be list-initialized with up to N elements whose types are convertible to T.
An array meets all of the requirements of a container ([container.reqmts]) and of a reversible container ([container.rev.reqmts]), except that a default constructed array object is not empty if .
An array meets some of the requirements of a sequence container.
Descriptions are provided here only for operations on array that are not described in one of these tables and for operations where there is additional semantic information.
array<T, N> is a structural type ([temp.param]) if T is a structural type.
Two values a1 and a2 of type array<T, N> are template-argument-equivalent if and only if each pair of corresponding elements in a1 and a2 are template-argument-equivalent.
The types iterator and const_iterator meet the constexpr iterator requirements.
namespace std { template<class T, size_t N> struct array { // types using value_type = T; using pointer = T*; using const_pointer = const T*; using reference = T&; using const_reference = const T&; using size_type = size_t; using difference_type = ptrdiff_t; using iterator = implementation-defined; // see [container.requirements] using const_iterator = implementation-defined; // see [container.requirements] using reverse_iterator = std::reverse_iterator<iterator>; using const_reverse_iterator = std::reverse_iterator<const_iterator>; // no explicit construct/copy/destroy for aggregate type constexpr void fill(const T& u); constexpr void swap(array&) noexcept(is_nothrow_swappable_v<T>); // iterators constexpr iterator begin() noexcept; constexpr const_iterator begin() const noexcept; constexpr iterator end() noexcept; constexpr const_iterator end() const noexcept; constexpr reverse_iterator rbegin() noexcept; constexpr const_reverse_iterator rbegin() const noexcept; constexpr reverse_iterator rend() noexcept; constexpr const_reverse_iterator rend() const noexcept; constexpr const_iterator cbegin() const noexcept; constexpr const_iterator cend() const noexcept; constexpr const_reverse_iterator crbegin() const noexcept; constexpr const_reverse_iterator crend() const noexcept; // capacity constexpr bool empty() const noexcept; constexpr size_type size() const noexcept; constexpr size_type max_size() const noexcept; // element access constexpr reference operator[](size_type n); constexpr const_reference operator[](size_type n) const; constexpr reference at(size_type n); // freestanding-deleted constexpr const_reference at(size_type n) const; // freestanding-deleted constexpr reference front(); constexpr const_reference front() const; constexpr reference back(); constexpr const_reference back() const; constexpr T * data() noexcept; constexpr const T * data() const noexcept; }; template<class T, class... U> array(T, U...) -> array<T, 1 + sizeof...(U)>; }

23.3.3.2 Constructors, copy, and assignment [array.cons]

An array relies on the implicitly-declared special member functions ([class.default.ctor], [class.dtor], [class.copy.ctor]) to conform to the container requirements table in [container.requirements].
In addition to the requirements specified in the container requirements table, the implicitly-declared move constructor and move assignment operator for array require that T be Cpp17MoveConstructible or Cpp17MoveAssignable, respectively.
template<class T, class... U> array(T, U...) -> array<T, 1 + sizeof...(U)>;
Mandates: (is_same_v<T, U> && ...) is true.

23.3.3.3 Member functions [array.members]

constexpr size_type size() const noexcept;
Returns: N.
constexpr T* data() noexcept; constexpr const T* data() const noexcept;
Returns: A pointer such that [data(), data() + size()) is a valid range.
For a non-empty array, data() == addressof(front()) is true.
constexpr void fill(const T& u);
Effects: As if by fill_n(begin(), N, u).
constexpr void swap(array& y) noexcept(is_nothrow_swappable_v<T>);
Effects: Equivalent to swap_ranges(begin(), end(), y.begin()).
[Note 1: 
Unlike the swap function for other containers, array​::​swap takes linear time, can exit via an exception, and does not cause iterators to become associated with the other container.
— end note]

23.3.3.4 Specialized algorithms [array.special]

template<class T, size_t N> constexpr void swap(array<T, N>& x, array<T, N>& y) noexcept(noexcept(x.swap(y)));
Constraints: N == 0 or is_swappable_v<T> is true.
Effects: As if by x.swap(y).
Complexity: Linear in N.

23.3.3.5 Zero-sized arrays [array.zero]

array shall provide support for the special case N == 0.
In the case that N == 0, begin() == end() == unique value.
The return value of data() is unspecified.
The effect of calling front() or back() for a zero-sized array is undefined.
Member function swap() shall have a non-throwing exception specification.

23.3.3.6 Array creation functions [array.creation]

template<class T, size_t N> constexpr array<remove_cv_t<T>, N> to_array(T (&a)[N]);
Mandates: is_array_v<T> is false and is_constructible_v<remove_cv_t<T>, T&> is true.
Preconditions: T meets the Cpp17CopyConstructible requirements.
Returns: {{ a[0], , a[N - 1] }}.
template<class T, size_t N> constexpr array<remove_cv_t<T>, N> to_array(T (&&a)[N]);
Mandates: is_array_v<T> is false and is_constructible_v<remove_cv_t<T>, T> is true.
Preconditions: T meets the Cpp17MoveConstructible requirements.
Returns: {{ std​::​move(a[0]), , std​::​move(a[N - 1]) }}.

23.3.3.7 Tuple interface [array.tuple]

template<class T, size_t N> struct tuple_size<array<T, N>> : integral_constant<size_t, N> { };
template<size_t I, class T, size_t N> struct tuple_element<I, array<T, N>> { using type = T; };
Mandates: I < N is true.
template<size_t I, class T, size_t N> constexpr T& get(array<T, N>& a) noexcept; template<size_t I, class T, size_t N> constexpr T&& get(array<T, N>&& a) noexcept; template<size_t I, class T, size_t N> constexpr const T& get(const array<T, N>& a) noexcept; template<size_t I, class T, size_t N> constexpr const T&& get(const array<T, N>&& a) noexcept;
Mandates: I < N is true.
Returns: A reference to the element of a, where indexing is zero-based.

23.3.5 Class template deque [deque]

23.3.5.1 Overview [deque.overview]

A deque is a sequence container that supports random access iterators.
In addition, it supports constant time insert and erase operations at the beginning or the end; insert and erase in the middle take linear time.
That is, a deque is especially optimized for pushing and popping elements at the beginning and end.
Storage management is handled automatically.
A deque meets all of the requirements of a container ([container.reqmts]), of a reversible container ([container.rev.reqmts]), of an allocator-aware container ([container.alloc.reqmts]), and of a sequence container, including the optional sequence container requirements ([sequence.reqmts]).
Descriptions are provided here only for operations on deque that are not described in one of these tables or for operations where there is additional semantic information.
namespace std { template<class T, class Allocator = allocator<T>> class deque { public: // types using value_type = T; using allocator_type = Allocator; using pointer = typename allocator_traits<Allocator>::pointer; using const_pointer = typename allocator_traits<Allocator>::const_pointer; using reference = value_type&; using const_reference = const value_type&; using size_type = implementation-defined; // see [container.requirements] using difference_type = implementation-defined; // see [container.requirements] using iterator = implementation-defined; // see [container.requirements] using const_iterator = implementation-defined; // see [container.requirements] using reverse_iterator = std::reverse_iterator<iterator>; using const_reverse_iterator = std::reverse_iterator<const_iterator>; // [deque.cons], construct/copy/destroy deque() : deque(Allocator()) { } explicit deque(const Allocator&); explicit deque(size_type n, const Allocator& = Allocator()); deque(size_type n, const T& value, const Allocator& = Allocator()); template<class InputIterator> deque(InputIterator first, InputIterator last, const Allocator& = Allocator()); template<container-compatible-range<T> R> deque(from_range_t, R&& rg, const Allocator& = Allocator()); deque(const deque& x); deque(deque&&); deque(const deque&, const type_identity_t<Allocator>&); deque(deque&&, const type_identity_t<Allocator>&); deque(initializer_list<T>, const Allocator& = Allocator()); ~deque(); deque& operator=(const deque& x); deque& operator=(deque&& x) noexcept(allocator_traits<Allocator>::is_always_equal::value); deque& operator=(initializer_list<T>); template<class InputIterator> void assign(InputIterator first, InputIterator last); template<container-compatible-range<T> R> void assign_range(R&& rg); void assign(size_type n, const T& t); void assign(initializer_list<T>); allocator_type get_allocator() const noexcept; // iterators iterator begin() noexcept; const_iterator begin() const noexcept; iterator end() noexcept; const_iterator end() const noexcept; reverse_iterator rbegin() noexcept; const_reverse_iterator rbegin() const noexcept; reverse_iterator rend() noexcept; const_reverse_iterator rend() const noexcept; const_iterator cbegin() const noexcept; const_iterator cend() const noexcept; const_reverse_iterator crbegin() const noexcept; const_reverse_iterator crend() const noexcept; // [deque.capacity], capacity bool empty() const noexcept; size_type size() const noexcept; size_type max_size() const noexcept; void resize(size_type sz); void resize(size_type sz, const T& c); void shrink_to_fit(); // element access reference operator[](size_type n); const_reference operator[](size_type n) const; reference at(size_type n); const_reference at(size_type n) const; reference front(); const_reference front() const; reference back(); const_reference back() const; // [deque.modifiers], modifiers template<class...

23.3.5.2 Constructors, copy, and assignment [deque.cons]

explicit deque(const Allocator&);
Effects: Constructs an empty deque, using the specified allocator.
Complexity: Constant.
explicit deque(size_type n, const Allocator& = Allocator());
Preconditions: T is Cpp17DefaultInsertable into deque.
Effects: Constructs a deque with n default-inserted elements using the specified allocator.
Complexity: Linear in n.
deque(size_type n, const T& value, const Allocator& = Allocator());
Preconditions: T is Cpp17CopyInsertable into deque.
Effects: Constructs a deque with n copies of value, using the specified allocator.
Complexity: Linear in n.
template<class InputIterator> deque(InputIterator first, InputIterator last, const Allocator& = Allocator());
Effects: Constructs a deque equal to the range [first, last), using the specified allocator.
Complexity: Linear in distance(first, last).
template<container-compatible-range<T> R> deque(from_range_t, R&& rg, const Allocator& = Allocator());
Effects: Constructs a deque with the elements of the range rg, using the specified allocator.
Complexity: Linear in ranges​::​distance(rg).

23.3.5.3 Capacity [deque.capacity]

void resize(size_type sz);
Preconditions: T is Cpp17MoveInsertable and Cpp17DefaultInsertable into deque.
Effects: If sz < size(), erases the last size() - sz elements from the sequence.
Otherwise, appends sz - size() default-inserted elements to the sequence.
void resize(size_type sz, const T& c);
Preconditions: T is Cpp17CopyInsertable into deque.
Effects: If sz < size(), erases the last size() - sz elements from the sequence.
Otherwise, appends sz - size() copies of c to the sequence.
void shrink_to_fit();
Preconditions: T is Cpp17MoveInsertable into deque.
Effects: shrink_to_fit is a non-binding request to reduce memory use but does not change the size of the sequence.
[Note 1: 
The request is non-binding to allow latitude for implementation-specific optimizations.
— end note]
If the size is equal to the old capacity, or if an exception is thrown other than by the move constructor of a non-Cpp17CopyInsertable T, then there are no effects.
Complexity: If the size is not equal to the old capacity, linear in the size of the sequence; otherwise constant.
Remarks: If the size is not equal to the old capacity, then invalidates all the references, pointers, and iterators referring to the elements in the sequence, as well as the past-the-end iterator.

23.3.5.4 Modifiers [deque.modifiers]

iterator insert(const_iterator position, const T& x); iterator insert(const_iterator position, T&& x); iterator insert(const_iterator position, size_type n, const T& x); template<class InputIterator> iterator insert(const_iterator position, InputIterator first, InputIterator last); template<container-compatible-range<T> R> iterator insert_range(const_iterator position, R&& rg); iterator insert(const_iterator position, initializer_list<T>); template<class... Args> reference emplace_front(Args&&... args); template<class... Args> reference emplace_back(Args&&... args); template<class... Args> iterator emplace(const_iterator position, Args&&... args); void push_front(const T& x); void push_front(T&& x); template<container-compatible-range<T> R> void prepend_range(R&& rg); void push_back(const T& x); void push_back(T&& x); template<container-compatible-range<T> R> void append_range(R&& rg);
Effects: An insertion in the middle of the deque invalidates all the iterators and references to elements of the deque.
An insertion at either end of the deque invalidates all the iterators to the deque, but has no effect on the validity of references to elements of the deque.
Complexity: The complexity is linear in the number of elements inserted plus the lesser of the distances to the beginning and end of the deque.
Inserting a single element at either the beginning or end of a deque always takes constant time and causes a single call to a constructor of T.
Remarks: If an exception is thrown other than by the copy constructor, move constructor, assignment operator, or move assignment operator of T, there are no effects.
If an exception is thrown while inserting a single element at either end, there are no effects.
Otherwise, if an exception is thrown by the move constructor of a non-Cpp17CopyInsertable T, the effects are unspecified.
iterator erase(const_iterator position); iterator erase(const_iterator first, const_iterator last); void pop_front(); void pop_back();
Effects: An erase operation that erases the last element of a deque invalidates only the past-the-end iterator and all iterators and references to the erased elements.
An erase operation that erases the first element of a deque but not the last element invalidates only iterators and references to the erased elements.
An erase operation that erases neither the first element nor the last element of a deque invalidates the past-the-end iterator and all iterators and references to all the elements of the deque.
[Note 1: 
pop_front and pop_back are erase operations.
— end note]
Throws: Nothing unless an exception is thrown by the assignment operator of T.
Complexity: The number of calls to the destructor of T is the same as the number of elements erased, but the number of calls to the assignment operator of T is no more than the lesser of the number of elements before the erased elements and the number of elements after the erased elements.

23.3.5.5 Erasure [deque.erasure]

template<class T, class Allocator, class U = T> typename deque<T, Allocator>::size_type erase(deque<T, Allocator>& c, const U& value);
Effects: Equivalent to: auto it = remove(c.begin(), c.end(), value); auto r = distance(it, c.end()); c.erase(it, c.end()); return r;
template<class T, class Allocator, class Predicate> typename deque<T, Allocator>::size_type erase_if(deque<T, Allocator>& c, Predicate pred);
Effects: Equivalent to: auto it = remove_if(c.begin(), c.end(), pred); auto r = distance(it, c.end()); c.erase(it, c.end()); return r;

23.3.7 Class template forward_list [forward.list]

23.3.7.1 Overview [forward.list.overview]

A forward_list is a container that supports forward iterators and allows constant time insert and erase operations anywhere within the sequence, with storage management handled automatically.
Fast random access to list elements is not supported.
[Note 1: 
It is intended that forward_list have zero space or time overhead relative to a hand-written C-style singly linked list.
Features that would conflict with that goal have been omitted.
— end note]
A forward_list meets all of the requirements of a container ([container.reqmts]), except that the size() member function is not provided and operator== has linear complexity.
A forward_list also meets all of the requirements for an allocator-aware container ([container.alloc.reqmts]).
In addition, a forward_list provides the assign member functions and several of the optional sequence container requirements ([sequence.reqmts]).
Descriptions are provided here only for operations on forward_list that are not described in that table or for operations where there is additional semantic information.
[Note 2: 
Modifying any list requires access to the element preceding the first element of interest, but in a forward_list there is no constant-time way to access a preceding element.
For this reason, erase_after and splice_after take fully-open ranges, not semi-open ranges.

23.3.9 Class template list [list]

23.3.9.1 Overview [list.overview]

A list is a sequence container that supports bidirectional iterators and allows constant time insert and erase operations anywhere within the sequence, with storage management handled automatically.
Unlike vectors and deques, fast random access to list elements is not supported, but many algorithms only need sequential access anyway.
A list meets all of the requirements of a container ([container.reqmts]), of a reversible container ([container.rev.reqmts]), of an allocator-aware container ([container.alloc.reqmts]), and of a sequence container, including most of the optional sequence container requirements ([sequence.reqmts]).
The exceptions are the operator[] and at member functions, which are not provided.198
Descriptions are provided here only for operations on list that are not described in one of these tables or for operations where there is additional semantic information.

23.3.9.5 Operations [list.ops]

Since lists allow fast insertion and erasing from the middle of a list, certain operations are provided specifically for them.199
In this subclause, arguments for a template parameter named Predicate or BinaryPredicate shall meet the corresponding requirements in [algorithms.requirements].
The semantics of i + n and i - n, where i is an iterator into the list and n is an integer, are the same as those of next(i, n) and prev(i, n), respectively.
For merge and sort, the definitions and requirements in [alg.sorting] apply.
list provides three splice operations that destructively move elements from one list to another.
The behavior of splice operations is undefined if get_allocator() != x.get_allocator().
void splice(const_iterator position, list& x); void splice(const_iterator position, list&& x);
Preconditions: addressof(x) != this is true.
Effects: Inserts the contents of x before position and x becomes empty.
Pointers and references to the moved elements of x now refer to those same elements but as members of *this.
Iterators referring to the moved elements will continue to refer to their elements, but they now behave as iterators into *this, not into x.
Throws: Nothing.
Complexity: Constant time.
void splice(const_iterator position, list& x, const_iterator i); void splice(const_iterator position, list&& x, const_iterator i);
Preconditions: i is a valid dereferenceable iterator of x.
Effects: Inserts an element pointed to by i from list x before position and removes the element from x.
The result is unchanged if position == i or position == ++i.
Pointers and references to *i continue to refer to this same element but as a member of *this.
Iterators to *i (including i itself) continue to refer to the same element, but now behave as iterators into *this, not into x.

Invalidates only the iterators and references to the erased elements.
Returns: The number of elements erased.

void merge(list& x); void merge(list&& x); template<class Compare> void merge(list& x, Compare comp); template<class Compare> void merge(list&& x, Compare comp);
Let comp be less<> for the first two overloads.
Preconditions: *this and x are both sorted with respect to the comparator comp, and get_allocator() == x.get_allocator() is true.
Effects: If addressof(x) == this, there are no effects.
Otherwise, merges the two sorted ranges [begin(), end()) and [x.begin(), x.end()).
The result is a range that is sorted with respect to the comparator comp.
Pointers and references to the moved elements of x now refer to those same elements but as members of *this.
Iterators referring to the moved elements will continue to refer to their elements, but they now behave as iterators into *this, not into x.
Complexity: At most size() + x.size() - 1 comparisons if addressof(x) != this; otherwise, no comparisons are performed.

23.3.11 Class template vector [vector]

23.3.11.1 Overview [vector.overview]

A vector is a sequence container that supports (amortized) constant time insert and erase operations at the end; insert and erase in the middle take linear time.
Storage management is handled automatically, though hints can be given to improve efficiency.
A vector meets all of the requirements of a container ([container.reqmts]), of a reversible container ([container.rev.reqmts]), of an allocator-aware container ([container.alloc.reqmts]), of a sequence container, including most of the optional sequence container requirements ([sequence.reqmts]), and, for an element type other than bool, of a contiguous container.
The exceptions are the push_front, prepend_range, pop_front, and emplace_front member functions, which are not provided.
Descriptions are provided here only for operations on vector that are not described in one of these tables or for operations where there is additional semantic information.
The types iterator and const_iterator meet the constexpr iterator requirements ([iterator.requirements.general]).

An incomplete type T may be used when instantiating vector if the allocator meets the allocator completeness requirements.
T shall be complete before any member of the resulting specialization of vector is referenced.

23.3.11.2 Constructors [vector.cons]

constexpr explicit vector(const Allocator&) noexcept;
Effects: Constructs an empty vector, using the specified allocator.
Complexity: Constant.
constexpr explicit vector(size_type n, const Allocator& = Allocator());
Preconditions: T is Cpp17DefaultInsertable into vector.
Effects: Constructs a vector with n default-inserted elements using the specified allocator.
Complexity: Linear in n.
constexpr vector(size_type n, const T& value, const Allocator& = Allocator());
Preconditions: T is Cpp17CopyInsertable into vector.
Effects: Constructs a vector with n copies of value, using the specified allocator.
Complexity: Linear in n.
template<class InputIterator> constexpr vector(InputIterator first, InputIterator last, const Allocator& = Allocator());
Effects: Constructs a vector equal to the range [first, last), using the specified allocator.
Complexity: Makes only N calls to the copy constructor of T (where N is the distance between first and last) and no reallocations if iterators first and last are of forward, bidirectional, or random access categories.
It makes order N calls to the copy constructor of T and order reallocations if they are just input iterators.
template<container-compatible-range<T> R> constexpr vector(from_range_t, R&& rg, const Allocator& = Allocator());
Effects: Constructs a vector object with the elements of the range rg, using the specified allocator.
Complexity: Initializes exactly N elements from the results of dereferencing successive iterators of rg, where N is ranges​::​distance(rg).
Performs no reallocations if R models ranges​::​forward_range or ranges​::​sized_range; otherwise, performs order reallocations and order N calls to the copy or move constructor of T.

23.3.11.3 Capacity [vector.capacity]

constexpr size_type capacity() const noexcept;
Returns: The total number of elements that the vector can hold without requiring reallocation.
Complexity: Constant time.
constexpr void reserve(size_type n);
Preconditions: T is Cpp17MoveInsertable into vector.
Effects: A directive that informs a vector of a planned change in size, so that it can manage the storage allocation accordingly.
After reserve(), capacity() is greater or equal to the argument of reserve if reallocation happens; and equal to the previous value of capacity() otherwise.
Reallocation happens at this point if and only if the current capacity is less than the argument of reserve().
If an exception is thrown other than by the move constructor of a non-Cpp17CopyInsertable type, there are no effects.
Throws: length_error if n > max_size().200
Complexity: It does not change the size of the sequence and takes at most linear time in the size of the sequence.
Remarks: Reallocation invalidates all the references, pointers, and iterators referring to the elements in the sequence, as well as the past-the-end iterator.
[Note 1: 
If no reallocation happens, they remain valid.
— end note]
No reallocation shall take place during insertions that happen after a call to reserve() until an insertion would make the size of the vector greater than the value of capacity().
constexpr void shrink_to_fit();
Preconditions: T is Cpp17MoveInsertable into vector.
Effects: shrink_to_fit is a non-binding request to reduce capacity() to size().
[Note 2: 
The request is non-binding to allow latitude for implementation-specific optimizations.
— end note]
It does not increase capacity(), but may reduce capacity() by causing reallocation.
If an exception is thrown other than by the move constructor of a non-Cpp17CopyInsertable T, there are no effects.
Complexity: If reallocation happens, linear in the size of the sequence.
Remarks: Reallocation invalidates all the references, pointers, and iterators referring to the elements in the sequence as well as the past-the-end iterator.
[Note 3: 
If no reallocation happens, they remain valid.
— end note]
constexpr void swap(vector& x) noexcept(allocator_traits<Allocator>::propagate_on_container_swap::value || allocator_traits<Allocator>::is_always_equal::value);
Effects: Exchanges the contents and capacity() of *this with that of x.
Complexity: Constant time.
constexpr void resize(size_type sz);
Preconditions: T is Cpp17MoveInsertable and Cpp17DefaultInsertable into vector.
Effects: If sz < size(), erases the last size() - sz elements from the sequence.
Otherwise, appends sz - size() default-inserted elements to the sequence.
Remarks: If an exception is thrown other than by the move constructor of a non-Cpp17CopyInsertable T, there are no effects.
constexpr void resize(size_type sz, const T& c);
Preconditions: T is Cpp17CopyInsertable into vector.
Effects: If sz < size(), erases the last size() - sz elements from the sequence.
Otherwise, appends sz - size() copies of c to the sequence.
Remarks: If an exception is thrown, there are no effects.
200)200)
reserve() uses Allocator​::​allocate() which can throw an appropriate exception.

23.3.11.4 Data [vector.data]

constexpr T* data() noexcept; constexpr const T* data() const noexcept;
Returns: A pointer such that [data(), data() + size()) is a valid range.
For a non-empty vector, data() == addressof(front()) is true.
Complexity: Constant time.

23.3.11.5 Modifiers [vector.modifiers]

constexpr iterator insert(const_iterator position, const T& x); constexpr iterator insert(const_iterator position, T&& x); constexpr iterator insert(const_iterator position, size_type n, const T& x); template<class InputIterator> constexpr iterator insert(const_iterator position, InputIterator first, InputIterator last); template<container-compatible-range<T> R> constexpr iterator insert_range(const_iterator position, R&& rg); constexpr iterator insert(const_iterator position, initializer_list<T>); template<class... Args> constexpr reference emplace_back(Args&&... args); template<class... Args> constexpr iterator emplace(const_iterator position, Args&&... args); constexpr void push_back(const T& x); constexpr void push_back(T&& x); template<container-compatible-range<T> R> constexpr void append_range(R&& rg);
Complexity: If reallocation happens, linear in the number of elements of the resulting vector; otherwise, linear in the number of elements inserted plus the distance to the end of the vector.
Remarks: Causes reallocation if the new size is greater than the old capacity.
Reallocation invalidates all the references, pointers, and iterators referring to the elements in the sequence, as well as the past-the-end iterator.
If no reallocation happens, then references, pointers, and iterators before the insertion point remain valid but those at or after the insertion point, including the past-the-end iterator, are invalidated.
If an exception is thrown other than by the copy constructor, move constructor, assignment operator, or move assignment operator of T or by any InputIterator operation, there are no effects.
If an exception is thrown while inserting a single element at the end and T is Cpp17CopyInsertable or is_nothrow_move_constructible_v<T> is true, there are no effects.
Otherwise, if an exception is thrown by the move constructor of a non-Cpp17CopyInsertable T, the effects are unspecified.
constexpr iterator erase(const_iterator position); constexpr iterator erase(const_iterator first, const_iterator last); constexpr void pop_back();
Effects: Invalidates iterators and references at or after the point of the erase.
Throws: Nothing unless an exception is thrown by the assignment operator or move assignment operator of T.
Complexity: The destructor of T is called the number of times equal to the number of the elements erased, but the assignment operator of T is called the number of times equal to the number of elements in the vector after the erased elements.

23.3.11.6 Erasure [vector.erasure]

template<class T, class Allocator, class U = T> constexpr typename vector<T, Allocator>::size_type erase(vector<T, Allocator>& c, const U& value);
Effects: Equivalent to: auto it = remove(c.begin(), c.end(), value); auto r = distance(it, c.end()); c.erase(it, c.end()); return r;
template<class T, class Allocator, class Predicate> constexpr typename vector<T, Allocator>::size_type erase_if(vector<T, Allocator>& c, Predicate pred);
Effects: Equivalent to: auto it = remove_if(c.begin(), c.end(), pred); auto r = distance(it, c.end()); c.erase(it, c.end()); return r;

23.3.12 Specialization of vector for bool [vector.bool]

23.3.12.1 Partial class template specialization vector<bool, Allocator> [vector.bool.pspc]

To optimize space allocation, a partial specialization of vector for bool elements is provided: namespace std { template<class Allocator> class vector<bool, Allocator> { public: // types using value_type = bool; using allocator_type = Allocator; using pointer = implementation-defined; using const_pointer = implementation-defined; using const_reference = bool; using size_type = implementation-defined; // see [container.requirements] using difference_type = implementation-defined; // see [container.requirements] using iterator = implementation-defined; // see [container.requirements] using const_iterator = implementation-defined; // see [container.requirements] using reverse_iterator = std::reverse_iterator<iterator>; using const_reverse_iterator = std::reverse_iterator<const_iterator>; // bit reference class reference { public: constexpr reference(const reference&) = default; constexpr ~reference(); constexpr operator bool() const noexcept; constexpr reference& operator=(bool x) noexcept; constexpr reference& operator=(const reference& x) noexcept; constexpr const reference& operator=(bool x) const noexcept; constexpr void flip() noexcept; // flips the bit }; // construct/copy/destroy constexpr vector() noexcept(noexcept(Allocator())) : vector(Allocator()) { } constexpr explicit vector(const Allocator&) noexcept; constexpr explicit vector(size_type n, const Allocator& = Allocator()); constexpr vector(size_type n, const bool& value, const Allocator& = Allocator()); template<class InputIterator> constexpr vector(InputIterator first, InputIterator last, const Allocator& = Allocator()); template<container-compatible-range<bool> R> constexpr vector(from_range_t, R&& rg, const Allocator& = Allocator()); constexpr vector(const vector& x); constexpr vector(vector&& x) noexcept; constexpr vector(const vector&, const type_identity_t<Allocator>&); constexpr vector(vector&&, const type_identity_t<Allocator>&); constexpr vector(initializer_list<bool>, const Allocator& = Allocator()); constexpr ~vector(); constexpr vector& operator=(const vector& x); constexpr vector& operator=(vector&& x) noexcept(allocator_traits<Allocator>::propagate_on_container_move_assignment::value || allocator_traits<Allocator>::is_always_equal::value); constexpr vector& operator=(initializer_list<bool>); template<class InputIterator> constexpr void assign(InputIterator first, InputIterator last); template<container-compatible-range<bool> R> constexpr void assign_range(R&& rg); constexpr void assign(size_type n, const bool& t); constexpr void assign(initializer_list<bool>); constexpr allocator_type get_allocator() const noexcept; // iterators constexpr iterator begin() noexcept; constexpr const_iterator begin() const noexcept; constexpr iterator end() noexcept; constexpr const_iterator end() const noexcept; constexpr reverse_iterator rbegin() noexcept; constexpr const_reverse_iterator rbegin() const noexcept; constexpr reverse_iterator rend() noexcept; constexpr const_reverse_iterator rend() const noexcept; constexpr const_iterator cbegin() const noexcept; constexpr const_iterator cend() const noexcept; constexpr const_reverse_iterator crbegin() const noexcept; constexpr const_reverse_iterator crend() const noexcept; // capacity constexpr bool empty() const noexcept; constexpr size_type size() const noexcept; constexpr size_type max_size() const noexcept; constexpr size_type capacity() const noexcept; constexpr void resize(size_type sz, bool c = false); constexpr void reserve(size_type n); constexpr void shrink_to_fit(); // element access constexpr reference operator[](size_type n); constexpr const_reference operator[](size_type n) const; constexpr reference at(size_type n); constexpr const_reference at(size_type n) const; constexpr reference front(); constexpr const_reference front() const; constexpr reference back(); constexpr const_reference back() const; // modifiers template<class... Args> constexpr reference emplace_back(Args&&... args); constexpr void push_back(const bool& x); template<container-compatible-range<bool> R> constexpr void append_range(R&& rg); constexpr void pop_back(); template<class... Args> constexpr iterator emplace(const_iterator position, Args&&... args); constexpr iterator insert(const_iterator position, const bool& x); constexpr iterator insert(const_iterator position, size_type n, const bool& x); template<class InputIterator> constexpr iterator insert(const_iterator position, InputIterator first, InputIterator last); template<container-compatible-range<bool> R> constexpr iterator insert_range(const_iterator position, R&& rg); constexpr iterator insert(const_iterator position, initializer_list<bool> il); constexpr iterator erase(const_iterator position); constexpr iterator erase(const_iterator first, const_iterator last); constexpr void swap(vector&) noexcept(allocator_traits<Allocator>::propagate_on_container_swap::value || allocator_traits<Allocator>::is_always_equal::value); static constexpr void swap(reference x, reference y) noexcept; constexpr void flip() noexcept; // flips all bits constexpr void clear() noexcept; }; }
Unless described below, all operations have the same requirements and semantics as the primary vector template, except that operations dealing with the bool value type map to bit values in the container storage and allocator_traits​::​construct is not used to construct these values.
There is no requirement that the data be stored as a contiguous allocation of bool values.
A space-optimized representation of bits is recommended instead.
reference is a class that simulates the behavior of references of a single bit in vector<bool>.
The conversion function returns true when the bit is set, and false otherwise.
The assignment operators set the bit when the argument is (convertible to) true and clear it otherwise.
flip reverses the state of the bit.
constexpr void flip() noexcept;
Effects: Replaces each element in the container with its complement.
static constexpr void swap(reference x, reference y) noexcept;
Effects: Exchanges the contents of x and y as if by: bool b = x; x = y; y = b;
template<class Allocator> struct hash<vector<bool, Allocator>>;
The specialization is enabled ([unord.hash]).
template<class T> constexpr bool is-vector-bool-reference = see below;
The expression is-vector-bool-reference<T> is true if T denotes the type vector<bool, Alloc>​::​reference for some type Alloc and vector<bool, Alloc> is not a program-defined specialization.

23.3.12.2 Formatter specialization for vector<bool> [vector.bool.fmt]

namespace std { template<class T, class charT> requires is-vector-bool-reference<T> struct formatter<T, charT> { private: formatter<bool, charT> underlying_; // exposition only public: template<class ParseContext> constexpr typename ParseContext::iterator parse(ParseContext& ctx); template<class FormatContext> typename FormatContext::iterator format(const T& ref, FormatContext& ctx) const; }; }
template<class ParseContext> constexpr typename ParseContext::iterator parse(ParseContext& ctx);
Equivalent to: return underlying_.parse(ctx);
template<class FormatContext> typename FormatContext::iterator format(const T& ref, FormatContext& ctx) const;
Equivalent to: return underlying_.format(ref, ctx);

23.3.14 Class template inplace_vector [inplace.vector]

23.3.14.1 Overview [inplace.vector.overview]

An inplace_vector is a contiguous container.
Its capacity is fixed and its elements are stored within the inplace_vector object itself.
An inplace_vector meets all of the requirements of a container ([container.reqmts]), of a reversible container ([container.rev.reqmts]), of a contiguous container, and of a sequence container, including most of the optional sequence container requirements ([sequence.reqmts]).
The exceptions are the push_front, prepend_range, pop_front, and emplace_front member functions, which are not provided.
Descriptions are provided here only for operations on inplace_vector that are not described in one of these tables or for operations where there is additional semantic information.
For any N, inplace_vector<T, N>​::​iterator and inplace_vector<T, N>​::​const_iterator meet the constexpr iterator requirements.
For any , if T is not trivially copyable or is_trivially_default_constructible_v<T> is false, then no inplace_vector<T, N> member functions are usable in constant expressions.
Any member function of inplace_vector<T, N> that would cause the size to exceed N throws an exception of type bad_alloc.
Let IV denote a specialization of inplace_vector<T, N>.
If N is zero, then IV is trivially copyable and empty, and std​::​is_trivially_default_constructible_v<IV> is true.
Otherwise:
  • If is_trivially_copy_constructible_v<T> is true, then IV has a trivial copy constructor.
  • If is_trivially_move_constructible_v<T> is true, then IV has a trivial move constructor.
  • If is_trivially_destructible_v<T> is true, then:
    • IV has a trivial destructor.
    • If is_trivially_copy_constructible_v<T> && is_trivially_copy_assignable_v<T> is true, then IV has a trivial copy assignment operator.
    • If is_trivially_move_constructible_v<T> && is_trivially_move_assignable_v<T> is true, then IV has a trivial move assignment operator.

Args> constexpr iterator emplace(const_iterator position, Args&&... args); template<container-compatible-range<T> R> constexpr void append_range(R&& rg);
Let n be the value of size() before this call for the append_range overload, and distance(begin, position) otherwise.

Each iterator in the range rg is dereferenced at most once.
Returns: An iterator pointing to the first element of rg that was not inserted into *this, or ranges​::​end(rg) if no such element exists.
Complexity: Linear in the number of elements inserted.
Remarks: Let n be the value of size() prior to this call.

23.4.3 Class template map [map]

23.4.3.1 Overview [map.overview]

A map is an associative container that supports unique keys (i.e., contains at most one of each key value) and provides for fast retrieval of values of another type T based on the keys.
The map class supports bidirectional iterators.
A map meets all of the requirements of a container ([container.reqmts]), of a reversible container ([container.rev.reqmts]), of an allocator-aware container ([container.alloc.reqmts]).
and of an associative container ([associative.reqmts]).
A map also provides most operations described in [associative.reqmts] for unique keys.
This means that a map supports the a_uniq operations in [associative.reqmts] but not the a_eq operations.
For a map<Key,T> the key_type is Key and the value_type is pair<const Key,T>.
Descriptions are provided here only for operations on map that are not described in one of those tables or for operations where there is additional semantic information.

23.4.4 Class template multimap [multimap]

23.4.4.1 Overview [multimap.overview]

A multimap is an associative container that supports equivalent keys (i.e., possibly containing multiple copies of the same key value) and provides for fast retrieval of values of another type T based on the keys.
The multimap class supports bidirectional iterators.
A multimap meets all of the requirements of a container ([container.reqmts]), of a reversible container ([container.rev.reqmts]), of an allocator-aware container ([container.alloc.reqmts]), and of an associative container ([associative.reqmts]).
A multimap also provides most operations described in [associative.reqmts] for equal keys.
This means that a multimap supports the a_eq operations in [associative.reqmts] but not the a_uniq operations.

23.4.6 Class template set [set]

23.4.6.1 Overview [set.overview]

A set is an associative container that supports unique keys (i.e., contains at most one of each key value) and provides for fast retrieval of the keys themselves.
The set class supports bidirectional iterators.
A set meets all of the requirements of a container ([container.reqmts]), of a reversible container ([container.rev.reqmts]), of an allocator-aware container ([container.alloc.reqmts]).
and of an associative container ([associative.reqmts]).
A set also provides most operations described in [associative.reqmts] for unique keys.
This means that a set supports the a_uniq operations in [associative.reqmts] but not the a_eq operations.
For a set<Key> both the key_type and value_type are Key.
Descriptions are provided here only for operations on set that are not described in one of these tables and for operations where there is additional semantic information.

Constraints: The qualified-id Compare​::​is_transparent is valid and denotes a type.
For the second overload, is_convertible_v<K&&, const_iterator> and is_convertible_v<K&&, iterator> are both false.
Preconditions: value_type is Cpp17EmplaceConstructible into set from std​::​forward<K>(x).
Effects: If the set already contains an element that is equivalent to x, there is no effect.
Otherwise, let r be equal_range(x).
Constructs an object u of type value_type with std​::​forward<K>(x).
If equal_range(u) == r is false, the behavior is undefined.
Inserts u into *this.

23.5.1 General [unord.general]

The header <unordered_map> defines the class templates unordered_map and unordered_multimap; the header <unordered_set> defines the class templates unordered_set and unordered_multiset.
The exposition-only alias templates iter-value-type, iter-key-type, iter-mapped-type, iter-to-alloc-type, range-key-type, range-mapped-type, and range-to-alloc-type defined in [associative.general] may appear in deduction guides for unordered containers.

23.5.3 Class template unordered_map [unord.map]

23.5.3.1 Overview [unord.map.overview]

An unordered_map is an unordered associative container that supports unique keys (an unordered_map contains at most one of each key value) and that associates values of another type mapped_type with the keys.
The unordered_map class supports forward iterators.
An unordered_map meets all of the requirements of a container ([container.reqmts]), of an allocator-aware container ([container.alloc.reqmts]), and of an unordered associative container ([unord.req]).
It provides the operations described in the preceding requirements table for unique keys; that is, an unordered_map supports the a_uniq operations in that table, not the a_eq operations.
For an unordered_map<Key, T> the key_type is Key, the mapped_type is T, and the value_type is pair<const Key, T>.
Subclause [unord.map] only describes operations on unordered_map that are not described in one of the requirement tables, or for which there is additional semantic information.

23.5.4 Class template unordered_multimap [unord.multimap]

23.5.4.1 Overview [unord.multimap.overview]

An unordered_multimap is an unordered associative container that supports equivalent keys (an instance of unordered_multimap may contain multiple copies of each key value) and that associates values of another type mapped_type with the keys.
The unordered_multimap class supports forward iterators.
An unordered_multimap meets all of the requirements of a container ([container.reqmts]), of an allocator-aware container ([container.alloc.reqmts]), and of an unordered associative container ([unord.req]).
It provides the operations described in the preceding requirements table for equivalent keys; that is, an unordered_multimap supports the a_eq operations in that table, not the a_uniq operations.

23.5.6 Class template unordered_set [unord.set]

23.5.6.1 Overview [unord.set.overview]

An unordered_set is an unordered associative container that supports unique keys (an unordered_set contains at most one of each key value) and in which the elements' keys are the elements themselves.
The unordered_set class supports forward iterators.
An unordered_set meets all of the requirements of a container ([container.reqmts]), of an allocator-aware container ([container.alloc.reqmts]), of an unordered associative container ([unord.req]).
It provides the operations described in the preceding requirements table for unique keys; that is, an unordered_set supports the a_uniq operations in that table, not the a_eq operations.
For an unordered_set<Key> the key_type and the value_type are both Key.
The iterator and const_iterator types are both constant iterator types.
It is unspecified whether they are the same type.
Subclause [unord.set] only describes operations on unordered_set that are not described in one of the requirement tables, or for which there is additional semantic information.

template<class K, class H, class P, class A, class Predicate> typename unordered_set<K, H, P, A>::size_type erase_if(unordered_set<K, H, P, A>& c, Predicate pred);
Effects: Equivalent to: auto original_size = c.size(); for (auto i = c.begin(), last = c.end(); i != last; ) { if (pred(*i)) { i = c.erase(i); } else { ++i; } } return original_size - c.size();

23.5.6.4 Modifiers [unord.set.modifiers]

template<class K> pair<iterator, bool> insert(K&& obj); template<class K> iterator insert(const_iterator hint, K&& obj);
Constraints: The qualified-ids Hash​::​is_transparent and Pred​::​is_transparent are valid and denote types.
For the second overload, is_convertible_v<K&&, const_iterator> and is_convertible_v<K&&, iterator> are both false.
Preconditions: value_type is Cpp17EmplaceConstructible into unordered_set from std​::​forward<K>
(obj)
.
Effects: If the set already contains an element that is equivalent to obj, there is no effect.
Otherwise, let h be hash_function()(obj).
Constructs an object u of type value_type with std​::​forward<K>(obj).
If hash_function()(u) != h || contains(u) is true, the behavior is undefined.
Inserts u into *this.
Returns: For the first overload, the bool component of the returned pair is true if and only if the insertion took place.
The returned iterator points to the set element that is equivalent to obj.
Complexity: Average case constant, worst case linear.

23.5.7 Class template unordered_multiset [unord.multiset]

23.5.7.1 Overview [unord.multiset.overview]

An unordered_multiset is an unordered associative container that supports equivalent keys (an instance of unordered_multiset may contain multiple copies of the same key value) and in which each element's key is the element itself.
The unordered_multiset class supports forward iterators.
An unordered_multiset meets all of the requirements of a container ([container.reqmts]), of an allocator-aware container ([container.alloc.reqmts]), and of an unordered associative container ([unord.req]).
It provides the operations described in the preceding requirements table for equivalent keys; that is, an unordered_multiset supports the a_eq operations in that table, not the a_uniq operations.
For an unordered_multiset<Key> the key_type and the value_type are both Key.
The iterator and const_iterator types are both constant iterator types.
It is unspecified whether they are the same type.
Subclause [unord.multiset] only describes operations on unordered_multiset that are not described in one of the requirement tables, or for which there is additional semantic information.

template<class K, class H, class P, class A, class Predicate> typename unordered_multiset<K, H, P, A>::size_type erase_if(unordered_multiset<K, H, P, A>& c, Predicate pred);
Effects: Equivalent to: auto original_size = c.size(); for (auto i = c.begin(), last = c.end(); i != last; ) { if (pred(*i)) { i = c.erase(i); } else { ++i; } } return original_size - c.size();

23.6 Container adaptors [container.adaptors]

23.6.1 General [container.adaptors.general]

The headers <queue>, <stack>, <flat_map>, and <flat_set> define the container adaptors queue and priority_queue, stack, flat_map and flat_multimap, and flat_set and flat_multiset, respectively.
Each container adaptor takes one or more template parameters named Container, KeyContainer, or MappedContainer that denote the types of containers that the container adaptor adapts.
Each container adaptor has at least one constructor that takes a reference argument to one or more such template parameters.
For each constructor reference argument to a container C, the constructor copies the container into the container adaptor.
If C takes an allocator, then a compatible allocator may be passed in to the adaptor's constructor.
Otherwise, normal copy or move construction is used for the container argument.
For the container adaptors that take a single container template parameter Container, the first template parameter T of the container adaptor shall denote the same type as Container​::​value_type.
For container adaptors, no swap function throws an exception unless that exception is thrown by the swap of the adaptor's Container, KeyContainer, MappedContainer, or Compare object (if any).
A constructor template of a container adaptor shall not participate in overload resolution if it has an InputIterator template parameter and a type that does not qualify as an input iterator is deduced for that parameter.
For container adaptors that have them, the insert, emplace, and erase members affect the validity of iterators, references, and pointers to the adaptor's container(s) in the same way that the containers' respective insert, emplace, and erase members do.
[Example 1: 
A call to flat_map<Key, T>​::​insert can invalidate all iterators to the flat_map.
— end example]
A deduction guide for a container adaptor shall not participate in overload resolution if any of the following are true:
  • It has an InputIterator template parameter and a type that does not qualify as an input iterator is deduced for that parameter.
  • It has a Compare template parameter and a type that qualifies as an allocator is deduced for that parameter.
  • It has a Container, KeyContainer, or MappedContainer template parameter and a type that qualifies as an allocator is deduced for that parameter.
  • It has no Container, KeyContainer, or MappedContainer template parameter, and it has an Allocator template parameter, and a type that does not qualify as an allocator is deduced for that parameter.
  • It has both Container and Allocator template parameters, and uses_allocator_v<Container, Allocator> is false.
  • It has both KeyContainer and Allocator template parameters, and uses_allocator_v<KeyContainer, Allocator> is false.
  • It has both KeyContainer and Compare template parameters, and is_invocable_v<const Compare&, const typename KeyContainer::value_type&, const typename KeyContainer::value_type&> is not a valid expression or is false.
  • It has both MappedContainer and Allocator template parameters, and uses_allocator_v<MappedContainer, Allocator> is false.
The exposition-only alias template iter-value-type defined in [sequences.general] and the exposition-only alias templates iter-key-type, iter-mapped-type, range-key-type, and range-mapped-type defined in [associative.general] may appear in deduction guides for container adaptors.
The following exposition-only alias template may appear in deduction guides for container adaptors: template<class Allocator, class T> using alloc-rebind = // exposition only typename allocator_traits<Allocator>::template rebind_alloc<T>;

23.6.4 Class template priority_queue [priority.queue]

23.6.4.1 Overview [priqueue.overview]

Any sequence container with random access iterator and supporting operations front(), push_back() and pop_back() can be used to instantiate priority_queue.

Instantiating priority_queue also involves supplying a function or function object for making priority comparisons; the library assumes that the function or function object defines a strict weak ordering.

23.6.8 Class template flat_map [flat.map]

23.6.8.1 Overview [flat.map.overview]

A flat_map is a container adaptor that provides an associative container interface that supports unique keys (i.e., contains at most one of each key value) and provides for fast retrieval of values of another type T based on the keys.
flat_map supports iterators that meet the Cpp17InputIterator requirements and model the random_access_iterator concept ([iterator.concept.random.access]).
A flat_map meets all of the requirements of a container ([container.reqmts]) and of a reversible container ([container.rev.reqmts]), plus the optional container requirements ([container.opt.reqmts]).
flat_map meets the requirements of an associative container ([associative.reqmts]), except that:
  • it does not meet the requirements related to node handles ([container.node]),
  • it does not meet the requirements related to iterator invalidation, and
  • the time complexity of the operations that insert or erase a single element from the map is linear, including the ones that take an insertion position iterator.
[Note 1: 
A flat_map does not meet the additional requirements of an allocator-aware container ([container.alloc.reqmts]).
— end note]
A flat_map also provides most operations described in [associative.reqmts] for unique keys.
This means that a flat_map supports the a_uniq operations in [associative.reqmts] but not the a_eq operations.
For a flat_map<Key, T> the key_type is Key and the value_type is pair<Key, T>.
Descriptions are provided here only for operations on flat_map that are not described in one of those sets of requirements or for operations where there is additional semantic information.
A flat_map maintains the following invariants:
  • it contains the same number of keys and values;
  • the keys are sorted with respect to the comparison object; and
  • the value at offset off within the value container is the value associated with the key at offset off within the key container.
If any member function in [flat.map.defn] exits via an exception the invariants are restored.
[Note 2: 
This can result in the flat_map being emptied.
— end note]
Any type C that meets the sequence container requirements ([sequence.reqmts]) can be used to instantiate flat_map, as long as C​::​iterator meets the Cpp17RandomAccessIterator requirements and invocations of member functions C​::​size and C​::​max_size do not exit via an exception.
In particular, vector ([vector]) and deque ([deque]) can be used.
[Note 3: 
vector<bool> is not a sequence container.
— end note]
The program is ill-formed if Key is not the same type as KeyContainer​::​value_type or T is not the same type as MappedContainer​::​value_type.
The effect of calling a constructor that takes both key_container_type and mapped_container_type arguments with containers of different sizes is undefined.
The effect of calling a constructor or member function that takes a sorted_unique_t argument with a container, containers, or range that is not sorted with respect to key_comp(), or that contains equal elements, is undefined.

23.6.9 Class template flat_multimap [flat.multimap]

23.6.9.1 Overview [flat.multimap.overview]

A flat_multimap is a container adaptor that provides an associative container interface that supports equivalent keys (i.e., possibly containing multiple copies of the same key value) and provides for fast retrieval of values of another type T based on the keys.
flat_multimap supports iterators that meet the Cpp17InputIterator requirements and model the random_access_iterator concept ([iterator.concept.random.access]).
A flat_multimap meets all of the requirements for a container ([container.reqmts]) and for a reversible container ([container.rev.reqmts]), plus the optional container requirements ([container.opt.reqmts]).
flat_multimap meets the requirements of an associative container ([associative.reqmts]), except that:
  • it does not meet the requirements related to node handles ([container.node]),
  • it does not meet the requirements related to iterator invalidation, and
  • the time complexity of the operations that insert or erase a single element from the map is linear, including the ones that take an insertion position iterator.
[Note 1: 
A flat_multimap does not meet the additional requirements of an allocator-aware container ([container.alloc.reqmts]).
— end note]
A flat_multimap also provides most operations described in [associative.reqmts] for equal keys.
This means that a flat_multimap supports the a_eq operations in [associative.reqmts] but not the a_uniq operations.
For a flat_multimap<Key, T> the key_type is Key and the value_type is pair<Key, T>.
Except as otherwise noted, operations on flat_multimap are equivalent to those of flat_map, except that flat_multimap operations do not remove or replace elements with equal keys.
[Example 1: 
flat_multimap constructors and emplace do not erase non-unique elements after sorting them.
— end example]
A flat_multimap maintains the following invariants:
  • it contains the same number of keys and values;
  • the keys are sorted with respect to the comparison object; and
  • the value at offset off within the value container is the value associated with the key at offset off within the key container.
If any member function in [flat.multimap.defn] exits via an exception, the invariants are restored.
[Note 2: 
This can result in the flat_multimap being emptied.
— end note]
Any type C that meets the sequence container requirements ([sequence.reqmts]) can be used to instantiate flat_multimap, as long as C​::​iterator meets the Cpp17RandomAccessIterator requirements and invocations of member functions C​::​size and C​::​max_size do not exit via an exception.
In particular, vector ([vector]) and deque ([deque]) can be used.
[Note 3: 
vector<bool> is not a sequence container.
— end note]
The program is ill-formed if Key is not the same type as KeyContainer​::​value_type or T is not the same type as MappedContainer​::​value_type.
The effect of calling a constructor that takes both key_container_type and mapped_container_type arguments with containers of different sizes is undefined.
The effect of calling a constructor or member function that takes a sorted_equivalent_t argument with a container, containers, or range that are not sorted with respect to key_comp() is undefined.

23.6.9.3 Constructors [flat.multimap.cons]

flat_multimap(key_container_type key_cont, mapped_container_type mapped_cont, const key_compare& comp = key_compare());
Effects: Initializes c.keys with std​::​move(key_cont), c.values with std​::​move(mapped_cont), and compare with comp; sorts the range [begin(), end()) with respect to value_comp().
Complexity: Linear in N if the container arguments are already sorted with respect to value_comp() and otherwise , where N is the value of key_cont.size() before this call.
flat_multimap(sorted_equivalent_t, key_container_type key_cont, mapped_container_type mapped_cont, const key_compare& comp = key_compare());
Effects: Initializes c.keys with std​::​move(key_cont), c.values with std​::​move(mapped_cont), and compare with comp.
Complexity: Constant.

23.6.9.4 Constructors with allocators [flat.multimap.cons.alloc]

The constructors in this subclause shall not participate in overload resolution unless uses_allocator_v<key_container_type, Alloc> is true and uses_allocator_v<mapped_container_type, Alloc> is true.
template<class Alloc> flat_multimap(const key_container_type& key_cont, const mapped_container_type& mapped_cont, const Alloc& a); template<class Alloc> flat_multimap(const key_container_type& key_cont, const mapped_container_type& mapped_cont, const key_compare& comp, const Alloc& a);
Effects: Equivalent to flat_multimap(key_cont, mapped_cont) and flat_multimap(key_cont, mapped_cont, comp), respectively, except that c.keys and c.values are constructed with uses-allocator construction ([allocator.uses.construction]).
Complexity: Same as flat_multimap(key_cont, mapped_cont) and flat_multimap(key_cont, mapped_cont, comp), respectively.
template<class Alloc> flat_multimap(sorted_equivalent_t s, const key_container_type& key_cont, const mapped_container_type& mapped_cont, const Alloc& a); template<class Alloc> flat_multimap(sorted_equivalent_t s, const key_container_type& key_cont, const mapped_container_type& mapped_cont, const key_compare& comp, const Alloc& a);
Effects: Equivalent to flat_multimap(s, key_cont, mapped_cont) and flat_multimap(s, key_cont, mapped_cont, comp), respectively, except that c.keys and c.values are constructed with uses-allocator construction ([allocator.uses.construction]).
Complexity: Linear.
template<class Alloc> explicit flat_multimap(const Alloc& a); template<class Alloc> flat_multimap(const key_compare& comp, const Alloc& a); template<class Alloc> flat_multimap(const flat_multimap&, const Alloc& a); template<class Alloc> flat_multimap(flat_multimap&&, const Alloc& a); template<class InputIterator, class Alloc> flat_multimap(InputIterator first, InputIterator last, const Alloc& a); template<class InputIterator, class Alloc> flat_multimap(InputIterator first, InputIterator last, const key_compare& comp, const Alloc& a); template<class InputIterator, class Alloc> flat_multimap(sorted_equivalent_t, InputIterator first, InputIterator last, const Alloc& a); template<class InputIterator, class Alloc> flat_multimap(sorted_equivalent_t, InputIterator first, InputIterator last, const key_compare& comp, const Alloc& a); template<container-compatible-range<value_type> R, class Alloc> flat_multimap(from_range_t, R&& rg, const Alloc& a); template<container-compatible-range<value_type> R, class Alloc> flat_multimap(from_range_t, R&& rg, const key_compare& comp, const Alloc& a); template<class Alloc> flat_multimap(initializer_list<value_type> il, const Alloc& a); template<class Alloc> flat_multimap(initializer_list<value_type> il, const key_compare& comp, const Alloc& a); template<class Alloc> flat_multimap(sorted_equivalent_t, initializer_list<value_type> il, const Alloc& a); template<class Alloc> flat_multimap(sorted_equivalent_t, initializer_list<value_type> il, const key_compare& comp, const Alloc& a);
Effects: Equivalent to the corresponding non-allocator constructors except that c.keys and c.values are constructed with uses-allocator construction ([allocator.uses.construction]).

23.6.9.5 Erasure [flat.multimap.erasure]

template<class Key, class T, class Compare, class KeyContainer, class MappedContainer, class Predicate> typename flat_multimap<Key, T, Compare, KeyContainer, MappedContainer>::size_type erase_if(flat_multimap<Key, T, Compare, KeyContainer, MappedContainer>& c, Predicate pred);
Preconditions: Key and T meet the Cpp17MoveAssignable requirements.
Effects: Let E be bool(pred(pair<const Key&, const T&>(e))).
Erases all elements e in c for which E holds.
Returns: The number of elements erased.
Complexity: Exactly c.size() applications of the predicate.
Remarks: Stable ([algorithm.stable]).
If an invocation of erase_if exits via an exception, c is in a valid but unspecified state ([defns.valid]).
[Note 1: 
c still meets its invariants, but can be empty.

23.6.11 Class template flat_set [flat.set]

23.6.11.1 Overview [flat.set.overview]

A flat_set is a container adaptor that provides an associative container interface that supports unique keys (i.e., contains at most one of each key value) and provides for fast retrieval of the keys themselves.
flat_set supports iterators that model the random_access_iterator concept ([iterator.concept.random.access]).
A flat_set meets all of the requirements for a container ([container.reqmts]) and for a reversible container ([container.rev.reqmts]), plus the optional container requirements ([container.opt.reqmts]).
flat_set meets the requirements of an associative container ([associative.reqmts]), except that:
  • it does not meet the requirements related to node handles ([container.node.overview]),
  • it does not meet the requirements related to iterator invalidation, and
  • the time complexity of the operations that insert or erase a single element from the set is linear, including the ones that take an insertion position iterator.
[Note 1: 
A flat_set does not meet the additional requirements of an allocator-aware container, as described in [container.alloc.reqmts].
— end note]
A flat_set also provides most operations described in [associative.reqmts] for unique keys.
This means that a flat_set supports the a_uniq operations in [associative.reqmts] but not the a_eq operations.
For a flat_set<Key>, both the key_type and value_type are Key.
Descriptions are provided here only for operations on flat_set that are not described in one of those sets of requirements or for operations where there is additional semantic information.
A flat_set maintains the invariant that the keys are sorted with respect to the comparison object.
If any member function in [flat.set.defn] exits via an exception, the invariant is restored.
[Note 2: 
This can result in the flat_set's being emptied.
— end note]
Any sequence container ([sequence.reqmts]) supporting Cpp17RandomAccessIterator can be used to instantiate flat_set.
In particular, vector ([vector]) and deque ([deque]) can be used.
[Note 3: 
vector<bool> is not a sequence container.
— end note]
The program is ill-formed if Key is not the same type as KeyContainer​::​value_type.
The effect of calling a constructor or member function that takes a sorted_unique_t argument with a range that is not sorted with respect to key_comp(), or that contains equal elements, is undefined.

explicit flat_set(container_type cont, const key_compare& comp = key_compare());
Effects: Initializes c with std​::​move(cont) and compare with comp, sorts the range [begin(), end()) with respect to compare, and finally erases all but the first element from each group of consecutive equivalent elements.
Complexity: Linear in N if cont is already sorted with respect to compare and otherwise , where N is the value of cont.size() before this call.

23.6.11.5 Modifiers [flat.set.modifiers]

template<class K> pair<iterator, bool> insert(K&& x); template<class K> iterator insert(const_iterator hint, K&& x);
Constraints: The qualified-id Compare​::​is_transparent is valid and denotes a type.
is_constructible_v<value_type, K> is true.
Preconditions: The conversion from x into value_type constructs an object u, for which find(x) == find(u) is true.
Effects: If the set already contains an element equivalent to x, *this and x are unchanged.
Otherwise, inserts a new element as if by emplace(std​::​forward<K>(x)).
Returns: In the first overload, the bool component of the returned pair is true if and only if the insertion took place.
The returned iterator points to the element whose key is equivalent to x.
template<class InputIterator> void insert(InputIterator first, InputIterator last);
Effects: Adds elements to c as if by: c.insert(c.end(), first, last);
Then, sorts the range of newly inserted elements with respect to compare; merges the resulting sorted range and the sorted range of pre-existing elements into a single sorted range; and finally erases all but the first element from each group of consecutive equivalent elements.
Complexity: N + , where N is size() before the operation and M is distance(first, last).
Remarks: Since this operation performs an in-place merge, it may allocate memory.
template<class InputIterator> void insert(sorted_unique_t, InputIterator first, InputIterator last);
Effects: Equivalent to insert(first, last).
Complexity: Linear.
template<container-compatible-range<value_type> R> void insert_range(R&& rg);
Effects: Adds elements to c as if by: for (const auto& e : rg) { c.insert(c.end(), e); }
Then, sorts the range of newly inserted elements with respect to compare; merges the resulting sorted range and the sorted range of pre-existing elements into a single sorted range; and finally erases all but the first element from each group of consecutive equivalent elements.
Complexity: N + , where N is size() before the operation and M is ranges​::​distance(rg).
Remarks: Since this operation performs an in-place merge, it may allocate memory.
void swap(flat_set& y) noexcept;
Effects: Equivalent to: ranges::swap(compare, y.compare); ranges::swap(c, y.c);
container_type extract() &&;
Postconditions: *this is emptied, even if the function exits via an exception.
Returns: std​::​move(c).
void replace(container_type&& cont);
Preconditions: The elements of cont are sorted with respect to compare, and cont contains no equal elements.
Effects: Equivalent to: c = std​::​move(cont);

23.6.11.6 Erasure [flat.set.erasure]

template<class Key, class Compare, class KeyContainer, class Predicate> typename flat_set<Key, Compare, KeyContainer>::size_type erase_if(flat_set<Key, Compare, KeyContainer>& c, Predicate pred);
Preconditions: Key meets the Cpp17MoveAssignable requirements.
Effects: Let E be bool(pred(as_const(e))).
Erases all elements e in c for which E holds.
Returns: The number of elements erased.
Complexity: Exactly c.size() applications of the predicate.
Remarks: Stable ([algorithm.stable]).
If an invocation of erase_if exits via an exception, c is in a valid but unspecified state ([defns.valid]).
[Note 1: 
c still meets its invariants, but can be empty.

23.6.12 Class template flat_multiset [flat.multiset]

23.6.12.1 Overview [flat.multiset.overview]

A flat_multiset is a container adaptor that provides an associative container interface that supports equivalent keys (i.e., possibly containing multiple copies of the same key value) and provides for fast retrieval of the keys themselves.
flat_multiset supports iterators that model the random_access_iterator concept ([iterator.concept.random.access]).
A flat_multiset meets all of the requirements for a container ([container.reqmts]) and for a reversible container ([container.rev.reqmts]), plus the optional container requirements ([container.opt.reqmts]).
flat_multiset meets the requirements of an associative container ([associative.reqmts]), except that:
  • it does not meet the requirements related to node handles ([container.node.overview]),
  • it does not meet the requirements related to iterator invalidation, and
  • the time complexity of the operations that insert or erase a single element from the set is linear, including the ones that take an insertion position iterator.
[Note 1: 
A flat_multiset does not meet the additional requirements of an allocator-aware container, as described in [container.alloc.reqmts].
— end note]
A flat_multiset also provides most operations described in [associative.reqmts] for equal keys.
This means that a flat_multiset supports the a_eq operations in [associative.reqmts] but not the a_uniq operations.
For a flat_multiset<Key>, both the key_type and value_type are Key.
Descriptions are provided here only for operations on flat_multiset that are not described in one of the general sections or for operations where there is additional semantic information.
A flat_multiset maintains the invariant that the keys are sorted with respect to the comparison object.
If any member function in [flat.multiset.defn] exits via an exception, the invariant is restored.
[Note 2: 
This can result in the flat_multiset's being emptied.
— end note]
Any sequence container ([sequence.reqmts]) supporting Cpp17RandomAccessIterator can be used to instantiate flat_multiset.
In particular, vector ([vector]) and deque ([deque]) can be used.
[Note 3: 
vector<bool> is not a sequence container.
— end note]
The program is ill-formed if Key is not the same type as KeyContainer​::​value_type.
The effect of calling a constructor or member function that takes a sorted_equivalent_t argument with a range that is not sorted with respect to key_comp() is undefined.

span<ElementType, Extent> is a trivially copyable type ([basic.types.general]).
ElementType is required to be a complete object type that is not an abstract class type.
For a span s, any operation that invalidates a pointer in the range [s.data(), s.data() + s.size()) invalidates pointers, iterators, and references to elements of s.

23.7.3 Multidimensional access [views.multidim]

23.7.3.1 Overview [mdspan.overview]

A multidimensional index space is a Cartesian product of integer intervals.
Each interval can be represented by a half-open range , where and are the lower and upper bounds of the dimension.
The rank of a multidimensional index space is the number of intervals it represents.
The size of a multidimensional index space is the product of for each dimension i if its rank is greater than 0, and 1 otherwise.
An integer r is a rank index of an index space S if r is in the range .
A pack of integers idx is a multidimensional index in a multidimensional index space S (or representation thereof) if both of the following are true:
  • sizeof...(idx) is equal to the rank of S, and
  • for every rank index i of S, the value of idx is an integer in the interval of S.

23.7.3.4.3 Layout mapping policy requirements [mdspan.layout.policy.reqmts]

A type MP meets the layout mapping policy requirements if for a type E that is a specialization of extents, MP​::​mapping<E> is valid and denotes a type X that meets the layout mapping requirements ([mdspan.layout.reqmts]), and for which the qualified-id X​::​layout_type is valid and denotes the type MP and the qualified-id X​::​extents_type denotes E.

23.7.3.4.4 Layout mapping policies [mdspan.layout.policy.overview]

If Extents is not a specialization of extents, then the program is ill-formed.
layout_left_padded​::​mapping<E> is a trivially copyable type that models regular for each E.
Throughout [mdspan.layout.leftpad], let P_rank be the following size rank_ parameter pack of size_t values:
  • the empty parameter pack, if rank_ equals zero;
  • otherwise, 0zu, if rank_ equals one;
  • otherwise, the parameter pack 0zu, 1zu, …, rank_- 1.
Mandates:
  • If rank_dynamic() == 0 is true, then the size of the multidimensional index space Extents() is representable as a value of type index_type.
  • padding_value is representable as a value of type index_type.
  • If
    • rank_ is greater than one,
    • padding_value does not equal dynamic_extent, and
    • first-static-extent does not equal dynamic_extent,
    then LEAST-MULTIPLE-AT-LEAST(padding_value, first-static-extent) is representable as a value of type size_t, and is representable as a value of type index_type.
  • If
    • rank_ is greater than one,
    • padding_value does not equal dynamic_extent, and
    • extents_type​::​static_extent(k) does not equal dynamic_extent for all k in the range [0, extents_type​::​rank()),
    then the product of LEAST-MULTIPLE-AT-LEAST(padding_value, ext.static_extent(0)) and all values ext.static_extent(k) with k in the range of [1, rank_) is representable as a value of type size_t, and is representable as a value of type index_type.

static constexpr size_t static-padding-stride = see below;
The value is
  • 0, if rank_ equals zero or one;

  • otherwise, the size_t value which is LEAST-MULTIPLE-AT-LEAST(padding_value, first-static-extent).
index_type stride-1 = static-padding-stride;
Recommended practice: Implementations should not store this value if static-padding-stride is not dynamic_extent.

Using extents<index_type, static-padding-stride> instead of index_type as the type of stride-1 would achieve this.

layout_right_padded​::​mapping<E> is a trivially copyable type that models regular for each E.
Throughout [mdspan.layout.rightpad], let P_rank be the following size rank_ parameter pack of size_t values:

23.7.3.5 Accessor policy [mdspan.accessor]

23.7.3.5.1 General [mdspan.accessor.general]

An accessor policy defines types and operations by which a reference to a single object is created from an abstract data handle to a number of such objects and an index.
A range of indices is an accessible range of a given data handle and an accessor if, for each i in the range, the accessor policy's access function produces a valid reference to an object.
  • A denotes an accessor policy.
  • a denotes a value of type A or const A.
  • p denotes a value of type A​::​data_handle_type or const A​::​data_handle_type.
    [Note 1: 
    The type A​::​data_handle_type need not be dereferenceable.
    — end note]
  • n, i, and j each denote values of type size_t.

23.7.3.5.2 Requirements [mdspan.accessor.reqmts]

A type A meets the accessor policy requirements if
  • A models copyable,
  • is_nothrow_move_constructible_v<A> is true,
  • is_nothrow_move_assignable_v<A> is true,
  • is_nothrow_swappable_v<A> is true, and
  • the following types and expressions are well-formed and have the specified semantics.
typename A::element_type
Result: A complete object type that is not an abstract class type.
typename A::data_handle_type
Result: A type that models copyable, and for which is_nothrow_move_constructible_v<A​::​data_handle_type> is true, is_nothrow_move_assignable_v<A​::​data_handle_type> is true, and is_nothrow_swappable_v<A​::​data_handle_type> is true.
[Note 1: 
The type of data_handle_type need not be element_type*.
— end note]
typename A::reference
Result: A type that models common_reference_with<A​::​reference&&, A​::​element_type&>.
[Note 2: 
The type of reference need not be element_type&.
— end note]
typename A::offset_policy
Result: A type OP such that:
  • OP meets the accessor policy requirements,
  • constructible_from<OP, const A&> is modeled, and
  • is_same_v<typename OP​::​element_type, typename A​::​element_type> is true.
a.access(p, i)
Result: A​::​reference
Remarks: The expression is equality preserving.
[Note 3: 
Concrete accessor policies can impose preconditions for their access function.
However, they might not.
For example, an accessor where p is span<A​::​element_type, dynamic_extent> and access(p, i) returns p[i % p.size()] does not need to impose a precondition on i.
— end note]

Mandates:
  • byte_alignment is a power of two, and
  • byte_alignment >= alignof(ElementType) is true.
aligned_accessor meets the accessor policy requirements.
ElementType is required to be a complete object type that is neither an abstract class type nor an array type.
Each specialization of aligned_accessor is a trivially copyable type that models semiregular.
[0, n) is an accessible range for an object p of type data_handle_type and an object of type aligned_accessor if and only if
  • [p, p + n) is a valid range, and,
  • if n is greater than zero, then is_sufficiently_aligned<byte_alignment>(p) is true.
[Example 1: 
The following function compute uses is_sufficiently_aligned to check whether a given mdspan with default_accessor has a data handle with sufficient alignment to be used with aligned_accessor<float, 4 * sizeof(float)>.
If so, the function dispatches to a function compute_using_fourfold_overalignment that requires fourfold over-alignment of arrays, but can therefore use hardware-specific instructions, such as four-wide SIMD (Single Instruction Multiple Data) instructions.
Otherwise, compute dispatches to a possibly less optimized function compute_without_requiring_overalignment that has no over-alignment requirement.

template<class ElementType, class Extents, class LayoutPolicy, class AccessorPolicy, class... SliceSpecifiers> constexpr auto submdspan( const mdspan<ElementType, Extents, LayoutPolicy, AccessorPolicy>& src, SliceSpecifiers... slices) -> see below;
Let index_type be typename Extents​::​index_type.
Let sub_map_offset be the result of submdspan_mapping(src.mapping(), slices...).
[Note 1: 
This invocation of submdspan_mapping selects a function call via overload resolution on a candidate set that includes the lookup set found by argument-dependent lookup ([basic.lookup.argdep]).
— end note]
Constraints:
  • sizeof...(slices) equals Extents​::​rank(), and
  • the expression submdspan_mapping(src.mapping(), slices...) is well-formed when treated as an unevaluated operand.
Mandates:
  • decltype(submdspan_mapping(src.mapping(), slices...)) is a specialization of submdspan_mapping_result.
  • is_same_v<remove_cvref_t<decltype(sub_map_offset.mapping.extents())>, decltype(submdspan_extents(src.mapping(), slices...))> is true.
  • For each rank index k of src.extents(), exactly one of the following is true:
Preconditions:
  • For each rank index k of src.extents(), all of the following are true:
    • if is a specialization of strided_slice
    • 0  ≤ first_<index_type, k>(slices...)  ≤ last_<k>(src.extents(), slices...)  ≤ src.extent(k)
  • sub_map_offset.mapping.extents() == submdspan_extents(src.mapping(), slices...) is true; and
  • for each integer pack I which is a multidimensional index in sub_map_offset.mapping.extents(), sub_map_offset.mapping(I...) + sub_map_offset.offset == src.mapping()(src-indices(array{I...}, slices...)) is true.
[Note 2: 
These conditions ensure that the mapping returned by submdspan_mapping matches the algorithmically expected index-mapping given the slice specifiers.
— end note]
Effects: Equivalent to: auto sub_map_result = submdspan_mapping(src.mapping(), slices...); return mdspan(src.accessor().offset(src.data(), sub_map_result.offset), sub_map_result.mapping, AccessorPolicy::offset_policy(src.accessor()));
[Example 1: 
Given a rank-3 mdspan grid3d representing a three-dimensional grid of regularly spaced points in a rectangular prism, the function zero_surface sets all elements on the surface of the 3-dimensional shape to zero.
It does so by reusing a function zero_2d that takes a rank-2 mdspan.
// zero out all elements in an mdspan template<class T, class E, class L, class A> void zero_2d(mdspan<T, E, L, A> a) { static_assert(a.rank() == 2); for (int i = 0; i < a.extent(0); i++) for (int j = 0; j < a.extent(1); j++) a[i, j] = 0; } // zero out just the surface template<class T, class E, class L, class A> void zero_surface(mdspan<T, E, L, A> grid3d) { static_assert(grid3d.rank() == 3); zero_2d(submdspan(grid3d, 0, full_extent, full_extent)); zero_2d(submdspan(grid3d, full_extent, 0, full_extent)); zero_2d(submdspan(grid3d, full_extent, full_extent, 0)); zero_2d(submdspan(grid3d, grid3d.extent(0) - 1, full_extent, full_extent)); zero_2d(submdspan(grid3d, full_extent, grid3d.extent(1) - 1, full_extent)); zero_2d(submdspan(grid3d, full_extent, full_extent, grid3d.extent(2) - 1)); } — end example]
