std::unordered_multimap<Key,T,Hash,KeyEqual,Allocator>::equal_range

Since C++11

1,2) Returns a range containing all elements with key key in the container. The range is defined by two iterators, the first pointing to the first element of the wanted range and the second pointing past the last element of the range.

# Declarations

std::pair<iterator, iterator> equal_range( const Key& key );

(since C++11)

std::pair<const_iterator, const_iterator> equal_range( const Key& key ) const;

(since C++11)

template< class K >
std::pair<iterator, iterator> equal_range( const K& x );

(since C++20)

template< class K >
std::pair<const_iterator, const_iterator> equal_range( const K& x ) const;

(since C++20)

# Parameters

key: key value to compare the elements to
x: a value of any type that can be transparently compared with a key

# Return value

std::pair containing a pair of iterators defining the wanted range. If there are no such elements, past-the-end (see end()) iterators are returned as both elements of the pair.

    auto range = map.equal_range(1);
    for (auto it = range.first; it != range.second; ++it)
        std::cout << it->first << ' ' << it->second << '\n';
