SUMMARY
=======
The following sample code illustrates how to use the set::size STL function in
Visual C++.
MORE INFORMATION
================
Required Header
---------------
<set>
Prototype
---------
template<class _K, class _Pr, class _A>
class set {
public:
// Function 1:
size_type size() const;
}
NOTE: The class/parameter names in the prototype may not match the version in the
header file. Some have been modified to improve readability.
Description
-----------
The size function is used to determine the number of elements in the controlled
sequence.
Sample Code

Program Output
--------------
s1.size() returned 0
s1.insert(5)
s1.insert(8)
s1.insert(12)
s1.size() returned 3
