map::end


public member function
      iterator end ();
const_iterator end () const;

Return iterator to end

Returns an iterator referring to the past-the-end element in the map container.

Parameters

none

Return Value

An iterator to the element past the end of the container.

Both iterator and const_iterator are member types. In the map class template, these are bidirectional iterators.
Dereferencing this iterator accesses the element's value, which is of type pair<const Key,T>.

// map::begin/end
#include <iostream>
#include <map>
using namespace std;

int main ()
{
  map<char,int> mymap;
  map<char,int>::iterator it;

  mymap['b'] = 100;
  mymap['a'] = 200;
  mymap['c'] = 300;

  // show content:
  for ( it=mymap.begin() ; it != mymap.end(); it++ )
    cout << (*it).first << " => " << (*it).second << endl;

  return 0;
}


Output:
a => 200
b => 100
c => 300


Complexity

Constant.
