<h1>Tables</h1>
<p>Most of the requirements on containers are presented in the ISO standard
in the form of tables. In order to avoid massive duplication of effort
while documenting all the classes, we follow the standard's lead and
present the base information here. Individual classes will only document
their departures from these tables (removed functions, additional functions,
changes, etc).
</p>
<p>We will not try to duplicate all of the surrounding text (footnotes,
explanations, etc.) from the standard, because that would also entail a
duplication of effort. Some of the surrounding text has been paraphrased
here for clarity. If you are uncertain about the meaning or interpretation
of these notes, consult a good textbook, and/or purchase your own copy of
the standard (it's cheap, see our FAQ).
</p>
<p>The table numbers are the same as those used in the standard. Tables can
be jumped to using their number, e.g., "tables.html#67". Only
Tables 65 through 69 are presented. Some of the active Defect Reports
are also noted or incorporated.

These are in addition to the requirements of <a href="#65">containers</a>.
Map, multimap, set, and multiset are such containers. An associative
container supports <em>unique keys</em> (and is written as

one element for each key. Otherwise it supports <em>equivalent keys</em>
(and is written <code>a_eq</code>). Examples of the former are set and map,
examples of the latter are multiset and multimap.
