Performance

Hi, I'm using std::map to store a lot of elements (pairs of elements) and I have a "little" doubt, what is more efficient to iterate all elements over my std::map, iterator or reverse_iterator?

Thank's.

Salu2.

Is there a way for std::map to "edit" values like a predicate for the key?

as seen on Stack Overflow - Search for 'Stack Overflow'
I am wondering if it is possible to create something like a predicate for a std::map for all of its values so I don't have to edit the values before I insert them into the map. What I would like is something like this: mymap["username"] = " Marlon "; // notice the space on both sides of my name assert(mymap["username"]… >>> More

For example, I have a std::map with known sizeof(A) and sizefo(B), while map has N entries inside. How would you estimate its memory usage? I'd say it's something like (sizeof(A) + sizeof(B)) * N * factor But what is the factor? Different formula maybe? Update: Maybe it's easier to ask for upper… >>> More
