std::set
is an associative container that contains a sorted set of unique objects of type Key
. Sorting is done using the key comparison function Template:concept. Search, removal, and insertion operations have logarithmic complexity. Sets are usually implemented as red-black trees.
Everywhere the standard library uses the Template:concept concept, uniqueness is determined by using the equivalence relation. In imprecise terms, two objects a
and b
are considered equivalent if neither compares less than the other: !comp(a, b) && !comp(b, a)
.
std::set
meets the requirements of Template:concept, Template:concept, Template:concept and Template:concept.

Notes
The member types iterator
and const_iterator
may be aliases to the same type. This means defining a pair of function overloads using the two types as parameter types may violate the One Definition Rule. Since iterator
is convertible to const_iterator
, a single function with a const_iterator
as parameter type will work instead.
