// C++ function for illustration
// multimap::size() function
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
 
int main()
{
 
    // initialize container
    multimap<int, int> mp;
 
    // insert elements in random order
    mp.insert({ 2, 30 });
    mp.insert({ 1, 40 });
    mp.insert({ 2, 60 });
    mp.insert({ 2, 20 });
    mp.insert({ 1, 50 });
    mp.insert({ 4, 50 });
