map

Simple implementation of Map in C++. It's mainly intended to show how maps are implemented by libraries like STL.

How to build and install the library

It is a header-only library. You can copy it directly into your repository or build and install it as follows:

> mkdir build && cd build
> cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ..
> make
> make install

To build the example you have to set the BUILD_EXAMPLE option ON. By default it is not built.

> cmake -DBUILD_EXAMPLE=ON ..

To build python bindings you have to set the BUILD_PYTHON_BINDINGS option ON. By default it is not built.

> cmake -DBUILD_PYTHON_BINDINGS=ON ..

Examples

To use the library simply include and use it.

#include "map.hpp"

Map<int, int> map;

map.Insert(1, 5);
auto val = map.At(1);
map.Remove(1);

see example for more.

If you build and install python bindings, you can use it too.

import map_module

map = map_module.Map()
map.insert(1, 5)
val = map.at(1)
map.remove(1)
