C++ Standard Template Library in Practice - Maps and Multimaps - Overview

This video tutorial is part of a three-part series on maps and multi maps. It introduces maps as associative containers that store key-value pairs, allowing access by key rather than index. The video covers four main types of maps: map, multi map, unordered map, and unordered multi map, highlighting their unique features and behaviors. Maps are ordered and guarantee unique keys, while multi maps allow multiple equivalent keys. The tutorial also discusses the dynamic nature of these containers and their performance characteristics.

What is the significance of unique keys in map containers?

How do multi maps differ from regular maps in terms of key handling?
