Returns an iterator to the first element of the multimap.
If the multimap is empty, the returned iterator will be equal to end().
Parameters
(none).
Return value
Iterator to the first element.
Complexity
Constant.
Example
#include <algorithm>
#include <cassert>
#include <cstddef>
#include <iostream>
#include <map>
#include <string>
int main()
{
auto show_node = [](const auto& node, char ending = '\n')
{
std::cout << "{ " << node.first << ", " << node.second << " }" << ending;
};
std::multimap<std::size_t, std::string> mmap;
assert(mmap.begin() == mmap.end()); // OK
assert(mmap.cbegin() == mmap.cend()); // OK
mmap.insert({ sizeof(long), "LONG" });
show_node(*(mmap.cbegin()));
assert(mmap.begin() != mmap.end()); // OK
assert(mmap.cbegin() != mmap.cend()); // OK
mmap.begin()->second = "long";
show_node(*(mmap.cbegin()));
mmap.insert({ sizeof(int), "int" });
show_node(*mmap.cbegin());
mmap.insert({ sizeof(short), "short" });
show_node(*mmap.cbegin());
mmap.insert({ sizeof(char), "char" });
show_node(*mmap.cbegin());
mmap.insert({{ sizeof(float), "float" }, { sizeof(double), "double"}});
std::cout << "mmap = { ";
std::for_each(mmap.cbegin(), mmap.cend(), [&](const auto& n) { show_node(n, ' '); });
std::cout << "};\n";
}Possible output:
{ 8, LONG }
{ 8, long }
{ 4, int }
{ 2, short }
{ 1, char }
mmap = { { 1, char } { 2, short } { 4, int } { 4, float } { 8, long } { 8, double } };See also
