std::unordered_map<Key,T,Hash,KeyEqual,Allocator>::empty

From cppreference.com
 
 
 
 
bool empty() const noexcept;
(since C++11)
(until C++20)
[[nodiscard]] bool empty() const noexcept;
(since C++20)

Checks if the container has no elements, i.e. whether begin() == end().

Contents

[edit] Parameters

(none)

[edit] Return value

true if the container is empty, false otherwise.

[edit] Complexity

Constant.

[edit] Example

The following code uses empty to check if a std::unordered_map<int, int> contains any elements:

#include <iostream>
#include <unordered_map>
#include <utility>
 
int main()
{
    std::unordered_map<int,int> numbers;
    std::cout << std::boolalpha;
    std::cout << "Initially, numbers.empty(): " << numbers.empty() << '\n';
 
    numbers.emplace(42, 13);
    numbers.insert(std::make_pair(13317, 123));
    std::cout << "After adding elements, numbers.empty(): " << numbers.empty() << '\n';
}

Output:

Initially, numbers.empty(): true
After adding elements, numbers.empty(): false
