Description

flat_set is a Sorted Associative Container that stores objects of type Key. flat_set is a Simple Associative Container, meaning that its value type, as well as its key type, is Key. It is also a Unique Associative Container, meaning that no two elements are the same.

flat_set is similar to std::set but it's implemented like an ordered vector. This means that inserting a new element into a flat_set invalidates previous iterators and references

Erasing an element of a flat_set invalidates iterators and references pointing to elements that come after (their keys are bigger) the erased element.

`flat_set` public construct/copy/destruct

explicit flat_set(const Pred & comp = Pred(), 
                  const allocator_type & a = allocator_type());

Effects: Constructs an empty flat_map using the specified comparison object and allocator.

Complexity: Constant.

```
template<typename InputIterator> 
  flat_set(InputIterator first, InputIterator last, 
           const Pred & comp = Pred(), 
           const allocator_type & a = allocator_type());
```
Effects: Constructs an empty map using the specified comparison object and allocator, and inserts elements from the range [first ,last ).

Complexity: Linear in N if the range [first ,last ) is already sorted using comp and otherwise N logN, where N is last - first.
```
template<typename InputIterator> 
  flat_set(ordered_unique_range_t, InputIterator first, InputIterator last,

```
Effects: Constructs an empty flat_set using the specified comparison object and allocator, and inserts elements from the ordered unique range [first ,last). This function is more efficient than the normal range creation for ordered ranges.

Requires: [first ,last) must be ordered according to the predicate and must be unique values.

Complexity: Linear in N.

Complexity: Linear in x.size().
```
flat_set& operator=(BOOST_RV_REF(flat_set) mx);

Throws: Nothing.

Complexity: Constant.
```
void reserve(size_type count);
```
Effects: If n is less than or equal to capacity(), this call has no effect. Otherwise, it is a request for allocation of additional memory. If the request is successful, then capacity() is greater than or equal to n; otherwise, capacity() is unchanged. In either case, size() is unchanged.

Throws: If memory allocation allocation throws or T's copy constructor throws.

Note: If capacity() is less than "count", iterators and references to to values might be invalidated.
