loop map c++ code example

Example 1: how to iterate through a map in c++

//traditional way (long)
for(map<string,int>::iterator it=m.begin(); it!=m.end(); ++it)
	if(it->second)cout<<it->first<<" ";
//easy way(short) just works with c++11 or later versions
for(auto &x:m)
	if(x.second)cout<<x.first<<" ";
//condition is just an example of use

Example 2: through map c++

//Since c++17
for (auto& [key, value]: myMap) {
    cout << key << " has value " << value << endl;
}
//Since c++11
for (auto& kv : myMap) {
    cout << kv.first << " has value " << kv.second << endl;
}

Example 3: cpp goiver all the map values

map<string, int>::iterator it;

for (it = symbolTable.begin(); it != symbolTable.end(); it++)
{
    std::cout << it->first    // string (key)
              << ':'
              << it->second   // string's value 
              << std::endl;
}
