Suppose I have an unordered set
unordered_set<int> my_set;
myset.insert(1);
myset.insert(2);
myset.insert(3);
How do I iterate through it? I don't need to iterate in any order - just as long as I reach each element once. I tried
for (int i = 0; i < my_set.size(); i++)
cout << my_set[i];
to no avail.
You can use the new range-based for loop:
std::unordered_set<T> mySet;
for (const auto& elem: mySet) {
/* ... process elem ... */
}
Or, you can use the more traditional iterator-based loop:
std::unordered_set<T> mySet;
for (auto itr = mySet.begin(); itr != mySet.end(); ++itr) {
/* ... process *itr ... */
}
Or, if you don't have auto
support, perhaps because you don't have C++11 support on your compiler:
std::unordered_set<T> mySet;
for (std::unordered_set<T>::iterator itr = mySet.begin(); itr != mySet.end(); ++itr) {
/* ... process *itr ... */
}
