## Description

A map is a kind of associative container that supports unique keys (contains at most one of each key value) and provides for fast retrieval of values of another type T based on the keys. The map class supports bidirectional iterators.

A map satisfies all of the requirements of a container and of a reversible container and of an associative container. For a map<Key,T> the key_type is Key and the value_type is std::pair<const Key,T>.

Pred is the ordering function for Keys (e.g. std::less<Key>).

Alloc is the allocator to allocate the value_types (e.g. boost::interprocess:allocator< std::pair<const Key, T>).
