iterator find( const Key& key );	(1)
const_iterator find( const Key& key ) const;	(2)

1,2) Finds an element with key equivalent to key.

Parameters

key

-

key value of the element to search for

Return value

Iterator to an element with key equivalent to key. If no such element is found, past-the-end (see end()) iterator is returned.

Complexity

Constant on average, worst case linear in the size of the container.

Example

Run this code

#include <iostream>
#include <unordered_map>
 
int main()
{  
    std::unordered_map<int,char> example = {{1,'a'},{2,'b'}};
 
    auto search = example.find(2);
    if(search != example.end()) {
        std::cout << "Found " << search->first << " " << search->second << '\n';
    }
    else {
        std::cout << "Not found\n";
    }
}

Output:

Found 2 b
