Hello,
I have a map with keys that can be compared each other. I need a
method that returns the lowest and the greatest key from that map.
Now I'm using begin() and rbegin() which gives iterators to first and
last element of the map.
My question is:
Does begin() and rbegin() guarantee that returned iterators point on
the pair with lowest and gratest value?
Simple test (using gcc) shows it is true, but I've found comments it
is not.
Thanks for advice,

Unless you created your map with your own comparator as parameter then
std::less will be used, this means that the <-operator will be used to
compare objects. This means that the smallest (according to the
operator) element will be first and the largest last.

Assuming the iterators are valid, yes.
Simple test (using gcc) shows it is true, but I've found comments it
is not.
What comments said otherwise?

begin() and rbegin() are specified to give you the first and the last
element in the container. Whether these are the ones with the lowest and the
greatest value depends on your sorting predicate. The standard map uses the
less<operator and thus, all elements in the container will be sorted
ascending if you do not specify otherwise.
Simple test (using gcc) shows it is true, but I've found comments it
is not.
Are you sure that those comments did not refer to user specified sorting
like the following:
map<T, T, std::greater<T MyMap;
which would give you a map with descending order.

As far as I can tell, Postgres has no equivalent to greatest and least

Is this something that is on or can be added to the 'to do' list?
I could write a series of user-defined functions to do specific

Hi,
Can someone help me with an idea on how to start writing a C++ code

greatest common divisor and the linear combination of two intergers

algorithm.
I already have the code for the greatest common divisor but I dont
know how to do the linear combination.
