void clear();
(noexcept since C++11)Erases all elements from the container. After this call, size() returns zero.
Invalidates any references, pointers, and iterators referring to contained elements. Any past-the-end iterators are also invalidated.
[edit] ComplexityLinear in the size of the container, i.e., the number of elements.
[edit] Example#include <iostream> #include <string_view> #include <deque> void print_info(std::string_view rem, const std::deque<int>& v) { std::cout << rem << "{ "; for (const auto& value : v) std::cout << value << ' '; std::cout << "}\n"; std::cout << "Size=" << v.size() << '\n'; } int main() { std::deque<int> container{1, 2, 3}; print_info("Before clear: ", container); container.clear(); print_info("After clear: ", container); }
Output:
Before clear: { 1 2 3 } Size=3 After clear: { } Size=0Defect reports
