C++ multiset crbegin()

C++ multiset crbegin() function is used to return a constant reverse iterator referring to the last element in the multiset container.

A constant reverse iterator of multiset moves in reverse direction and incrementing it until it reaches to the beginning (First element) of the multiset container and points to the constant element.

Syntax

Parameter

None

Return value

It returns a constant reverse iterator pointing to the last element of the multiset.

Parameter

None

Return value

crbegin() function returns a constant reverse iterator pointing to the last element of the multimap.

Complexity

Constant.

Iterator validity

No changes.

Data Races

The container is accessed.

Concurrently accessing the elements of a multiset container is safe.

Exception Safety

This function never throws exceptions.

Example 1

Let’s see the simple example for crbegin() function:

  #include <iostream>  #include <set>    using namespace std;    int main ()  {    multiset<int> mymultiset = {40,20,30,10,30,10};      cout << “mymultiset in reverse order:”;    for (auto rit=mymultiset.crbegin(); rit != mymultiset.crend(); ++rit)      cout << ‘ ‘ << *rit;      cout << ‘n’;      return 0;  }  

Output:

mymultiset in reverse order: 40 30 30 20 10 10

In the above example, crbegin() function is used to return a constant reverse iterator pointing to the last element in the mymultiset multiset.

Because multisets store the elements in sorted order of keys therefore, iterating over a multiset will result in above order i.e. sorted order of keys.

Example 2

Let’s see a simple example to iterate over the multiset in reverse order using while loop:

  #include <iostream>  #include <set>  #include <string>  #include <iterator>    using namespace std;     int main() {     // Creating & Initializing a multiset of String & Ints  multiset<string> multisetEx = {“bbb”, “ccc”, “aaa”, “bbb”};    // Create a multiset iterator and point to the end of multiset   multiset<string>::const_reverse_iterator it = multisetEx.crbegin();     // Iterate over the multiset using Iterator till beginning.  while (it != multisetEx.crend()) {  // Accessing KEY from element pointed by it.  string word = *it;     cout << word << endl;     // Increment the Iterator to point to next entry  it++;  }  return 0;  }  

Output:

ccc  bbb  bbb  aaa

In the above example, we are using while loop to const_iterate over the multiset in reverse order and crbegin() function initializing the last element of the multiset.

Because multiset stores the elements in sorted order of keys therefore, iterating over a multiset will result in above order i.e. sorted order of keys.

Example 3

Let’s see a simple example to get the first element of the reversed multiset:

  #include <iostream>  #include <string>  #include <set>    using namespace std;    int main ()  {    multiset<int> s1 = {20,40,10,30, 20};                  auto ite = s1.crbegin();         cout << “The first element of the reversed multiset s1 is: “;      cout << *ite;      return 0;    }    

Output:

The first element of the reversed multiset s1 is: 40

In the above example, crbegin() function returns the first element of the reversed multiset s1 i.e. 40.

Example 4

Let’s see a simple example to sort and calculate the highest marks:

  #include <iostream>  #include <string>  #include <set>    using namespace std;    int main ()  {    multiset<int> marks = {400, 220, 250, 250, 365, 220};       cout << “Marks” << ‘n’;     cout<<“______________________n”;         multiset<int>::const_reverse_iterator rit;    for (rit=marks.crbegin(); rit!=marks.crend(); ++rit)      cout << *rit<< ‘n’;        auto ite = marks.crbegin();         cout << “nHighest Marks is: “<< *ite<<” n”;      return 0;    }  

Output:

Marks  ______________________  400  365  250  250  220  220    Highest Marks is: 400

In the above example, a multiset ‘marks’ is implemented where the elements of this multiset are stored as keys. Function crbegin() enables us to take advantage of the auto sorting in multisets and lets us to identify the highest marks.
