The
multiset::max_size()is a built-in function in C++ STL which returns the maximum number of elements a multiset container can hold.
Syntax:multiset_name.max_size()Parameters:
The function does not accept any parameters.
Return Value:The function returns the maximum number of elements a multiset container can hold. Below programs illustrate the above function:
Program 1: CPP
// CPP program to demonstrate the
// multiset::max_size() function
// when multiset is non-empty
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
multiset<int> s;
// Function to insert elements
// in the multiset container
s.insert(10);
s.insert(13);
s.insert(13);
s.insert(25);
s.insert(24);
cout << "The multiset elements are: ";
for (auto it = s.begin(); it != s.end(); it++)
cout << *it << " ";
cout << "\nThe max size of multiset: " << s.max_size();
return 0;
}
Output:
The multiset elements are: 10 13 13 24 25 The max size of multiset: 461168601842738790Program 2: CPP
// CPP program to demonstrate the
// multiset::max_size() function
// when multiset is empty
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
multiset<int> s;
cout << "\nThe max size of multiset: " << s.max_size();
return 0;
}
Output:
The max size of multiset: 461168601842738790All functions of multiset
