unordered_map rehash in C++ STL

The std::unordered_map::rehash() is a built in function C++ STL which which sets the number of buckets in container to n or more.
Syntax 

void rehash( size_type s );
  • If s is greater than the current buckets into the container then rehashed is done. The new bucket count can be greater than or equal to n.
  • If s is less than current bucket count then there may or may not be any effect of function. It totally depends upon compiler

Parameters : It takes New number of buckets into the container.

Return type : Its return type is none.

// C++ code to illustrate the method
// unordered_map rehash

using namespace std;
  
int main()
{
    unordered_map<char, int> sample;
  
    // Map initialization
    sample = { { 'a', 2 }, { 'b', 4 }, { 'c', 6 } };
  
    cout << " Size of container : " << sample.size() << endl;
    cout << " Initial bucket count : " << sample.bucket_count() << endl;
  
    // changing rehash
  
    sample.rehash(30);
    cout << " Size of container : " << sample.size() << endl;
    cout << " Now bucket count is :  " << sample.bucket_count() << endl;
    return 0;
}

                        filter_none









Output:


Size of container : 3
 Initial bucket count : 5
 Size of container : 3
 Now bucket count is :  31
