Artículo
06/09/2015

Quita un elemento o un intervalo de elementos de una asignación de las posiciones especificadas o quita los elementos que coinciden con una clave especificada.

iterator erase(
   const_iterator Where
);

iterator erase(
   const_iterator First,
   const_iterator Last
);

size_type erase(
   const key_type& Key
);

Parámetros

Where
Posición del elemento que se va a quitar.
First
Posición del primer elemento que se va a quitar.
Last
Posición situada más allá del último elemento que se va a quitar.
Key
Valor de clave de los elementos que se van a quitar.

Valor devuelto

Para las dos primeras funciones miembro, iterador bidireccional que designa el primer elemento que permanece más allá de los elementos quitados, o un elemento que es el final de la asignación si no existe ese elemento.

Para la tercera función miembro, devuelve el número de elementos que se han quitado de la asignación.

#include <iostream>
#include <iterator> // next() and prev() helper functions

    printmap(m3);
    // The 3rd member function removes elements with a given Key
    mymap::size_type count = m3.erase(2);
    // The 3rd member function also returns the number of elements removed
    cout << "The number of elements removed from m3 is: " << count << "." << endl;
    cout << "After the element with a key of 2 is deleted, the map m3 is:" << endl;
    printmap(m3);
}

Resultados

Starting data of map m1 is:
 [1, A] [2, B] [3, C] [4, D] [5, E]
size() == 5

After the 2nd element is deleted, the map m1 is:
 [1, A] [3, C] [4, D] [5, E]
size() == 4

Starting data of map m2 is:
 [10, Bob] [11, Rob] [12, Robert] [13, Bert] [14, Bobby]
size() == 5

After the middle elements are deleted, the map m2 is:
 [10, Bob] [14, Bobby]
size() == 2

Starting data of map m3 is:
 [1, red] [2, yellow] [3, blue] [4, green] [5, orange] [6, purple] [7, pink]
size() == 7

The number of elements removed from m3 is: 1.
After the element with a key of 2 is deleted, the map m3 is:
 [1, red] [3, blue] [4, green] [5, orange] [6, purple] [7, pink]
size() == 6
