NAME

std::multiset::end,std::multiset::cend - std::multiset::end,std::multiset::cend

Synopsis

iterator end(); (until C++11)
iterator end() noexcept; (since C++11)
const_iterator end() const; (until C++11)
const_iterator end() const noexcept; (since C++11)
const_iterator cend() const noexcept; (since C++11)

Returns an iterator to the element following the last element of the multiset.

This element acts as a placeholder; attempting to access it results in undefined
behavior.

Parameters

(none)

Return value

Iterator to the element following the last element.

Complexity

Constant.

Notes

Because both iterator and const_iterator are constant iterators (and may in fact be
the same type), it is not possible to mutate the elements of the container through
an iterator returned by any of these member functions.

Example

// Run this code

#include <iostream>
#include <iterator>
#include <set>
#include <string>

int main()
{
const std::multiset<std::string> words = {
"some", "not", "sorted", "words",
"will", "come", "out", "sorted",
};

for (auto it = words.begin(); it != words.end(); ) {
auto cnt = words.count(*it);
std::cout << *it << ":\t" << cnt << '\n';
std::advance(it, cnt); // all cnt elements have equivalent keys
}
}

Output:

come: 1
not: 1
out: 1
some: 1
sorted: 2
will: 1
words: 1
