Defined in header <map>
template<     class Key,     class T,     class Compare = std::less<Key>,     class Allocator = std::allocator<std::pair<const Key, T> > > class multimap;

Multimap is an associative container that contains a sorted list of key-value pairs. Sorting is done according to the comparison function Compare, applied to the keys. Search, insertion, and removal operations have logarithmic complexity.

The order of the key-value pairs whose keys compare equivalent is the order of insertion and does not change. (since C++11)

std::multimap meets the requirements of Template:concept, Template:concept, Template:concept and Template:concept.
