In C++, a multimap is a container that stores key-value pairs in an ordered manner. Unlike a map, a multimap allows multiple values to be associated with a single key. In this article, we will learn how to insert into a multimap using make_pair in C++.
Example
Input: myMultimap = {{1, “C++”}, {2, “Java”}}; Pair to Insert: {1, “Python”}; Output: myMultimap = {1, C++}, {1, Python}, {2, Java}
The std::make_pair() function constructs a pair of the given type and returns this pair. We can use this function to create a pair and directly insert it into the multimap container using std::multimap::insert(). Note that the pair type and multimap type should be the same.
multiMap.insert(make_pair(1, "apple"));
Where 1 is the key and "apple" is the associated value.
{1, C++}, {1, Python}, {2, Java},
Time Complexity: O(logN) where N is the number of elements in the multimap.
Auxiliary Space: O(1)
