multiset insert() function in C++ STL
The multiset::insert() is a built-in function in C++ STL which insert elements in the multiset container or inserts the elements from a position to another position from one multiset to a different multiset.
- Syntax:
iterator multiset_name.insert(element)
Parameters: The function accepts a mandatory parameter element which is to be inserted in the multiset container.
Return Value: The function returns an iterator pointing to the inserted element in the multiset container.
Below program illustrates the above function:
// CPP program to demonstrate the
// multiset::insert(element) function
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using
namespace
std;
int
main()
{
multiset<
int
> s;
// Function to insert elements
// in the set container
s.insert(1);
s.insert(4);
s.insert(1);
s.insert(5);
s.insert(1);
cout <<
"The elements in multiset are: "
;
for
(
auto
it = s.begin(); it != s.end(); it++)
cout << *it <<
" "
;
return
0;
}

- Syntax:
iterator multiset_name.insert(iterator position, element)
Parameters: The function accepts two parameter which are described below:
- element: It specifies the element to be inserted in the multiset container.
- position: It does not specify the position where the insertion is to be done, it only points to a position from where the searching operation is to be started for insertion to make the process faster. The insertion is done according to the order which is followed by the multiset container.
Return Value: The function returns an iterator pointing to the inserted element in the multiset container.
Below program illustrates the above function:
// CPP program to demonstrate the
// multiset::insert(iterator, element) function
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using
namespace
std;
int
main()
{
multiset<
int
> s;
// Function to insert elements
// in the set container
auto
itr = s.insert(s.begin(), 1);
// the time taken to insertion
// is very less as the correct
// position for isnertion is given
itr = s.insert(itr, 4);
itr = s.insert(itr, 1);
itr = s.insert(itr, 5);
// Slow insertion as position is
// not given correctly
itr = s.insert(s.begin(), 3);
cout <<
"The elements in multiset are: "
;
for
(
auto
it = s.begin(); it != s.end(); it++)
cout << *it <<
" "
;
return
0;
}

- Syntax:
iterator multiset_name.insert(iterator position1, iterator position2)
Parameters: The function accepts two parameters position1 and position2 which specifies the range of elements. All the elements in the range [position1, last) are inserted in another set container.
Return Value: The function returns a multiset which has all the elements in range [position1, last).
Below program illustrates the above function:
// CPP program to demonstrate the
// multiset::insert(iterator1, iterator2) function
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using
namespace
std;
int
main()
{
multiset<
int
> s1;
// Function to insert elements
// in the set container
s1.insert(1);
s1.insert(4);
s1.insert(1);
s1.insert(5);
s1.insert(1);
s1.insert(3);
cout <<
"The elements in multiset1 are: "
;
for
(
auto
it = s1.begin(); it != s1.end(); it++)
cout << *it <<
" "
;
multiset<
int
> s2;
// Function to insert one multiset to another
// all elements from where 3 is to end is
// inserted to multiset2
s2.insert(s1.find(3), s1.end());
cout <<
"\nThe elements in multiset2 are: "
;
for
(
auto
it = s2.begin(); it != s2.end(); it++)
cout << *it <<
" "
;
return
0;
}
chevron_rightfilter_noneOutput:The elements in multiset1 are: 1 1 1 3 4 5 The elements in multiset2 are: 3 4 5
