C++ multiset clear()C++ Multimultiset clear() function is used to remove all the elements of the multiset container. It clears the multiset and converts its size to 0. Syntaxvoid clear(); //until C++ 11 void clear() noexcept; //since C++ 11 ParameterNone Return valueNone ComplexityLinear in size. Iterator validityAll pointers, references and iterator related to this container are invalidated. Data RacesThe container is modified. All contained elements are modified. Exception SafetyThis function never throws exception. Example 1Let's see the simple example to calculate the size of multiset before and after clear operation: #include <iostream> #include <set> using namespace std; int main() { multiset<int> mymultiset = {10,20,20,30}; cout << "Initial size of multiset before clear operation = " << mymultiset.size() << endl; mymultiset.clear(); cout << "Size of multiset after clear operation = " << mymultiset.size() << endl; return 0; } Output: Initial size of multiset before clear operation = 4 Size of multiset after clear operation = 0 In the above example, a multiset is initialized with 4 elements therefore, the size is 4 but after the clear operation, size becomes 0. Example 2Let's see a simple example to clear the elements of the multiset: #include <iostream> #include <set> using namespace std; int main () { multiset<string> mymultiset; mymultiset = {"Nikita","Deep","Aman"}; cout << "mymultiset contains:\n"; for (multiset<string>::iterator it=mymultiset.begin(); it!=mymultiset.end(); ++it) cout << *it<< '\n'; mymultiset.clear(); mymultiset= {"Deep", "Raaz"}; cout << "\nmymultiset contains:\n"; for (multiset<string>::iterator it=mymultiset.begin(); it!=mymultiset.end(); ++it) cout << *it<< '\n'; return 0; } Output: mymultiset contains: Aman Deep Nikita mymultiset contains: Deep Raaz In the above example, after clear the multiset, we can add the new elements without initialization. Example 3Let's see a simple example to clear the elements of the multiset: #include <iostream> #include <set> using namespace std; int main () { int n; multiset<string> m1,m2,m3; m1 = {"Hello", "World"}; m2 = {"Java", "Program"}; m3 = {"C++", "Coding"}; cout << "m1 group has following members:\n"; for (multiset<string>::iterator it=m1.begin(); it!=m1.end(); ++it) cout << *it << ' '; cout << "\n\nm2 group has following members:\n"; for (multiset<string>::iterator it=m2.begin(); it!=m2.end(); ++it) cout << *it<< ' '; cout << "\n\nm3 group has following members:\n"; for (multiset<string>::iterator it=m3.begin(); it!=m3.end(); ++it) cout << *it<< ' '; cout<<"\n\nWhich group do you want to delete?\n 1.m1\n 2.m2\n 3.m3\n Please enter your choice: "; cin>>n; if(n==1){ m1.clear(); cout<<"\nGroup m1 has been cleared."; } else if(n==2){ m2.clear(); cout<<"\nGroup m2 has been cleared."; } else if(n==3){ m3.clear(); cout<<"\nGroup m3 has been cleared."; } else cout<<"Invalid option!"; return 0; } Output: m1 group has following members: Hello World m2 group has following members: Java Program m3 group has following members: C++ Coding Which group do you want to delete? 1.m1 2.m2 3.m3 Please enter your choice: 2 Group m2 has been cleared. In the above example, there are three groups of multiset and according to the user?s choice one group has been deleted. Example 4Let's see a simple example: #include <iostream> #include <set> using namespace std; int main() { int n; multiset<string> fruit = {"Banana","Apple","Orange","Banana"}; cout << "Fruit bucket has following fruits = \n"; for (multiset<string>::iterator it=fruit.begin(); it!=fruit.end(); ++it) cout << *it<< '\n'; cout<<"\nDo you want to clear your fruit bucket?\nPress 1 for Yes and 0 for No: "; cin>>n; if( n==1){ fruit.clear(); cout<<fruit.size()<<" fruits in bucket \n"; } else if(n==0) cout <<fruit.size() << " fruits in bucket \n" ; return 0; } Output: 1. Fruit bucket has following fruits = Apple Banana Banana Orange Do you want to clear your fruit bucket? Press 1 for Yes and 0 for No: 1 0 fruits in bucket 2. Fruit bucket has following fruits = Apple Banana Banana Orange Do you want to clear your fruit bucket? Press 1 for Yes and 0 for No: 1 4 fruits in bucket In the above example, a fruit multiset is initialized with three fruits. Asking for clear the multiset if you enter 0 then fruit bucket has 4 elements or if you enter 1 then it will clear the fruit multiset and the size becomes 0.
