rder of iteration over a map or a set

Hi,

if I iterate over a map or a set, is the order
specified in which the elements are traversed?

TIA,

Schobi

Yes, the order will be in ascending order of keys.

An additional comment to the OP: What "ascending" means in this context
depends on the sorting criterion, for which a default value (less) is
supplied.

Thanks. I think I knew that. I was just
wondering whether implementations are
required to traverser their trees in
this order.
