| template< class K > iterator find( const K& x ); |

1,2) Finds an element with key equivalent to
key. 3,4) Finds an element with key that compares equivalent to the value
x. This overload participates in overload resolution only if Hash::is_transparent and KeyEqual::is_transparent are valid and each denotes a type. This assumes that such Hash is callable with both K and Key type, and that the KeyEqual is transparent, which, together, allows calling this function without constructing an instance of Key.Parameters
| key | - | key value of the element to search for |
| x | - | a value of any type that can be transparently compared with a key |
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 <cstddef> #include <functional> #include <iostream> #include <string> #include <string_view> #include <unordered_map> using namespace std::literals; struct string_hash { using hash_type = std::hash<std::string_view>; using is_transparent = void; std::size_t operator()(const char* str) const { return hash_type{}(str); } std::size_t operator()(std::string_view str) const { return hash_type{}(str); } std::size_t operator()(std::string const& str) const { return hash_type{}(str); } }; int main() { // simple comparison demo std::unordered_map<int,char> example = {{1, 'a'}, {2, 'b'}}; if (auto search = example.find(2); search != example.end()) std::cout << "Found " << search->first << " " << search->second << '\n'; else std::cout << "Not found\n"; // C++20 demo: Heterogeneous lookup for unordered containers (transparent hashing) std::unordered_map<std::string, size_t, string_hash, std::equal_to<>> map{{"one"s, 1}}; std::cout << std::boolalpha << (map.find("one") != map.end()) << '\n' << (map.find("one"s) != map.end()) << '\n' << (map.find("one"sv) != map.end()) << '\n'; }
Output:
Found 2 b true true true
