im wondering if you can use the STL binary_search on STL map. I’ve tried but still cant get it to work
map<int,string> dataMap;
if(binary_search (dataMap.begin().first, dataMap.end().first, key))
// do some stuff
Thanks in advance! 🙂

STL
mapis inherently a binary search tree – just usemap::find. Using container member functions, where they are present, is preferable to algorithms.
