Compare istransparent. It allows calling this function without constructing an instance ofKey.Contents |
| key | - | key value of the element to search for |
| x | - | a value of any type that can be transparently compared with a key |
An iterator to the requested element. If no such element is found, past-the-end (seeend()) iterator is returned.
Logarithmic in the size of the container.
