Unordered Multiset

Unordered multisets are containers that store elements in no particular order, allowing fast retrieval of individual elements based on their value, much like unordered_set containers, but allowing different elements to have equivalent values.

In an unordered_multiset, the value of an element is at the same time its key, used to identify it. Keys are immutable, therefore, the elements in an unordered_multiset cannot be modified once in the container - they can be inserted and removed, though.

Internally, the elements in the unordered_multiset are not sorted in any particular, but organized into buckets depending on their hash values to allow for fast access to individual elements directly by their values (with a constant average time complexity on average).

Elements with equivalent values are grouped together in the same bucket and in such a way that an iterator (see equal_range) can iterate through all of them.

Iterators in the container are at least forward iterators.

Notice that this container is not defined in its own header, but shares header <unordered_set> with unordered_set.

Container properties

Associative: Elements in associative containers are referenced by their key and not by their absolute position in the container.
Unordered: Unordered containers organize their elements using hash tables that allow for fast access to elements by their key.
Set: The value of an element is also the key used to identify it.
Multiple equivalent keys: The container can hold multiple elements with equivalent keys.
Allocator-aware: The container uses an allocator object to dynamically handle its storage needs.

Template parameters

Key: Type of the elements. Each element in an unordered_multiset is also identified by this value.
Aliased as member types unordered_multiset::key_type and unordered_multiset::value_type.
Hash: A unary function object type that takes an object of the same type as the elements as argument and returns a unique value of type size_t based on it. This can either be a class implementing a function call operator or a pointer to a function (see constructor for an example). This defaults to hash<Key>, which returns a hash value with a probability of collision approaching 1.0/std::numeric_limits<size_t>::max().
The unordered_multiset object uses the hash values returned by this function to organize its elements internally, speeding up the process of locating individual elements.
Aliased as member type unordered_multiset::hasher.
Pred: A binary predicate that takes two arguments of the same type as the elements and returns a bool. The expression pred(a,b), where pred is an object of this type and a and b are key values, shall return true if a is to be considered equivalent to b. This can either be a class implementing a function call operator or a pointer to a function (see constructor for an example). This defaults to equal_to<Key>, which returns the same as applying the equal-to operator (a==b).
The unordered_multiset object uses this expression to determine whether two element keys are equivalent. This container supports multiple elements with equivalent keys.
Aliased as member type unordered_multiset::key_equal.
Alloc: Type of the allocator object used to define the storage allocation model. By default, the allocator class template is used, which defines the simplest memory allocation model and is value-independent.
Aliased as member type unordered_multiset::allocator_type.

In the reference for the unordered_multiset member functions, these same names (Key, Hash, Pred and Alloc) are assumed for the template parameters.

Member types

The following aliases are member types of unordered_multiset. They are widely used as parameter and return types by member functions:

member type	definition	notes
`key_type`	the first template parameter (`Key`)
`value_type`	the first template parameter (`Key`)	The same as `key_type`
`hasher`	the second template parameter (`Hash`)	defaults to: `hash<key_type>`
`key_equal`	the third template parameter (`Pred`)	defaults to: `equal_to<key_type>`
`allocator_type`	the fourth template parameter (`Alloc`)	defaults to: `allocator<value_type>`
`reference`	`Alloc::reference`
`const_reference`	`Alloc::const_reference`
`pointer`	`Alloc::pointer`	for the default allocator: `value_type*`
`const_pointer`	`Alloc::const_pointer`	for the default allocator: `const value_type*`
`iterator`	a forward iterator to `const value_type`	* convertible to `const_iterator`
`const_iterator`	a forward iterator to `const value_type`	*
`local_iterator`	a forward iterator to `const value_type`	* convertible to `const_local_iterator`
`const_local_iterator`	a forward iterator to `const value_type`	*
`size_type`	an unsigned integral type	usually the same as size_t
`difference_type`	a signed integral type	usually the same as ptrdiff_t

member type	definition	notes
`key_type`	the first template parameter (`Key`)
`value_type`	the first template parameter (`Key`)	The same as `key_type`
`hasher`	the second template parameter (`Hash`)	defaults to: `hash<key_type>`
`key_equal`	the third template parameter (`Pred`)	defaults to: `equal_to<key_type>`
`allocator_type`	the fourth template parameter (`Alloc`)	defaults to: `allocator<value_type>`
`reference`	`value_type&`
`const_reference`	`const value_type&`
`pointer`	`allocator_traits<Alloc>::pointer`	for the default allocator: `value_type*`
`const_pointer`	`allocator_traits<Alloc>::const_pointer`	for the default allocator: `const value_type*`
`iterator`	a forward iterator to `const value_type`	* convertible to `const_iterator`
`const_iterator`	a forward iterator to `const value_type`	*
`local_iterator`	a forward iterator to `const value_type`	* convertible to `const_local_iterator`
`const_local_iterator`	a forward iterator to `const value_type`	*
`size_type`	an unsigned integral type	usually the same as size_t
`difference_type`	a signed integral type	usually the same as ptrdiff_t

*Note: All iterators in a unordered_multiset point to const elements. Whether the const_ member type is the same type as its non-const_ counterpart depends on the particular library implementation, but programs should not rely on them being different to overload functions: const_iterator is more generic, since iterator is always convertible to it.
The same applies to local_ and non-local_ iterator types: they may either be the same type or not, but a program should not rely on them being different.
