std::flat_set<Key,Compare,KeyContainer>::max_size

From cppreference.com
< cpp‎ | container‎ | flat set
 
C++
 
Containers library
 
std::flat_set
size_type max_size() const noexcept;
(since C++23)

Returns the maximum number of elements the container is able to hold due to system or library implementation limitations, i.e. std::distance(begin(), end() for the largest container.

Contents

[edit] Parameters

(none)

[edit] Return value

Maximum number of elements.

[edit] Complexity

Constant.

[edit] Notes

This value typically reflects the theoretical limit on the size of the container, at most std::numeric_limits<difference_type>::max(). At runtime, the size of the container may be limited to a value smaller than max_size() by the amount of RAM available.

[edit] Example

#include <iostream>
#include <flat_set>
#include <locale>
 
int main()
{
    std::flat_set<char> q;
    std::cout.imbue(std::locale("en_US.UTF-8");
    std::cout << "Maximum size of a std::flat_set is " << q.max_size() << '\n';
}

Possible output:

Maximum size of a std::flat_set is 768,614,336,404,564,650
