26.4.6 Class template set [set]

26.4.6.1 Class template set overview [set.overview]

A set is an associative container that supports unique keys (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 satisfies all of the requirements of a container, of a reversible container, of an associative container, and of an allocator-aware container. 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.

26.4.6.2 set constructors, copy, and assignment [set.cons]

explicit set(const Compare& comp, const Allocator& = Allocator());

Effects: Constructs an empty set using the specified comparison objects and allocator.

Complexity: Constant.

template <class InputIterator> set(InputIterator first, InputIterator last, const Compare& comp = Compare(), const Allocator& = Allocator());

Effects: Constructs an empty set using the specified comparison object and allocator, and inserts elements from the range [first, last).

Complexity: Linear in N if the range [first, last) is already sorted using comp and otherwise NlogN, where N is last - first.

26.4.6.3 set specialized algorithms [set.special]

template <class Key, class Compare, class Allocator> void swap(set<Key, Compare, Allocator>& x, set<Key, Compare, Allocator>& y) noexcept(noexcept(x.swap(y)));

Effects: As if by x.swap(y).
