如何检查一个元素是否在集合中?

是否有与以下代码更简单的等效代码:

myset.find(x) != myset.end()

当前回答

Just to clarify, the reason why there is no member like contains() in these container types is because it would open you up to writing inefficient code. Such a method would probably just do a this->find(key) != this->end() internally, but consider what you do when the key is indeed present; in most cases you'll then want to get the element and do something with it. This means you'd have to do a second find(), which is inefficient. It's better to use find directly, so you can cache your result, like so:

auto it = myContainer.find(key);
if (it != myContainer.end())
{
    // Do something with it, no more lookup needed.
}
else
{
    // Key was not present.
}

当然,如果你不关心效率,你总是可以自己滚动,但在这种情况下,你可能不应该使用c++…;)

其他回答

就是这个,一英里。

bool once(uintptr_t val) {
    return visited.emplace(val).second;
}

怎么会不是这样呢?

func5(unsigned long):
        sub     rsp, 24
        mov     QWORD PTR [rsp+8], rdi
        lea     rsi, [rsp+8]
        mov     edi, OFFSET FLAT:visited2
        call    std::pair<std::_Rb_tree_iterator<unsigned long>, bool> std::_Rb_tree<unsigned long, unsigned long, std::_Identity<unsigned long>, std::less<unsigned long>, std::allocator<unsigned long> >::_M_emplace_unique<unsigned long&>(unsigned long&)
        add     rsp, 24
        mov     eax, edx
        ret

检查许多STL容器是否存在的典型方法,如std::map, std::set,…是:

const bool is_in = container.find(element) != container.end();

如果你要添加一个contains函数,它可能看起来像这样:

#include <algorithm>
#include <iterator>

template<class TInputIterator, class T> inline
bool contains(TInputIterator first, TInputIterator last, const T& value)
{
    return std::find(first, last, value) != last;
}

template<class TContainer, class T> inline
bool contains(const TContainer& container, const T& value)
{
    // This works with more containers but requires std::begin and std::end
    // from C++0x, which you can get either:
    //  1. By using a C++0x compiler or
    //  2. Including the utility functions below.
    return contains(std::begin(container), std::end(container), value);

    // This works pre-C++0x (and without the utility functions below, but doesn't
    // work for fixed-length arrays.
    //return contains(container.begin(), container.end(), value);
}

template<class T> inline
bool contains(const std::set<T>& container, const T& value)
{
    return container.find(value) != container.end();
}

这适用于std::set,其他STL容器,甚至固定长度的数组:

void test()
{
    std::set<int> set;
    set.insert(1);
    set.insert(4);
    assert(!contains(set, 3));

    int set2[] = { 1, 2, 3 };
    assert(contains(set2, 3));
}

编辑:

正如评论中指出的,我无意中使用了c++ 0x的新函数(std::begin和std::end)。下面是VS2010中近乎琐碎的实现:

namespace std {

template<class _Container> inline
    typename _Container::iterator begin(_Container& _Cont)
    { // get beginning of sequence
    return (_Cont.begin());
    }

template<class _Container> inline
    typename _Container::const_iterator begin(const _Container& _Cont)
    { // get beginning of sequence
    return (_Cont.begin());
    }

template<class _Container> inline
    typename _Container::iterator end(_Container& _Cont)
    { // get end of sequence
    return (_Cont.end());
    }

template<class _Container> inline
    typename _Container::const_iterator end(const _Container& _Cont)
    { // get end of sequence
    return (_Cont.end());
    }

template<class _Ty,
    size_t _Size> inline
    _Ty *begin(_Ty (&_Array)[_Size])
    { // get beginning of array
    return (&_Array[0]);
    }

template<class _Ty,
    size_t _Size> inline
    _Ty *end(_Ty (&_Array)[_Size])
    { // get end of array
    return (&_Array[0] + _Size);
    }

}

我能够为std::list和std::vector编写一个通用的包含函数,

template<typename T>
bool contains( const list<T>& container, const T& elt )
{
  return find( container.begin(), container.end(), elt ) != container.end() ;
}

template<typename T>
bool contains( const vector<T>& container, const T& elt )
{
  return find( container.begin(), container.end(), elt ) != container.end() ;
}

// use:
if( contains( yourList, itemInList ) ) // then do something

这样可以稍微清理一下语法。

但是我不能使用模板模板参数魔术使此工作任意stl容器。

// NOT WORKING:
template<template<class> class STLContainer, class T>
bool contains( STLContainer<T> container, T elt )
{
  return find( container.begin(), container.end(), elt ) != container.end() ;
}

任何关于改进上一个答案的评论都是很好的。

/ /通用语法

       set<int>::iterator ii = find(set1.begin(),set1.end(),"element to be searched");

/*在下面的代码中,我试图找到元素4和int集,如果它存在与否*/

set<int>::iterator ii = find(set1.begin(),set1.end(),4);
 if(ii!=set1.end())
 {
    cout<<"element found";
    set1.erase(ii);// in case you want to erase that element from set.
 }
