std::map::insert
|   std::pair<iterator,bool> insert( const value_type& value );  | 
(1) | |
|   template <class P>  std::pair<iterator, bool> insert( P&& value );  | 
(2) | (since C++11) | 
|   iterator insert( iterator hint, const value_type& value ); iterator insert( const_iterator hint, const value_type& value );  | 
(3) |  (until C++11)  (since C++11)  | 
|   template <class P>  iterator insert( const_iterator hint, P&& value );  | 
(4) | (since C++11) | 
|   template <class InputIterator> void insert( InputIterator first, InputIterator last );  | 
(5) | |
|   void insert( std::initializer_list<value_type> ilist );  | 
(6) | (since C++11) | 
Inserts element(s) to the container, if the container doesn't already contain an element with equivalent key.
1-2) inserts value.
3-4) inserts value in the position as close as possible, just prior(since C++11), to hint.
5) inserts elements from range [first, last).
6) inserts elements from initializer list ilist.
No iterators or references are invalidated.

[edit] Parameters
| hint | - | iterator, used as a suggestion as to where to insert the content | 
| value | - | element value to insert | 
| first, last | - | range of elements to insert | 
| ilist | - | initializer list to insert the values from | 
[edit] Return value
1-2) returns a pair consisting of an iterator to the inserted element (or to the element that prevented the insertion) and a bool denoting whether the insertion took place.
3-4) returns an iterator to the inserted element, or to the element that prevented the insertion.
5-6) none.
[edit] Complexity
1-2) Logarithmic in the size of the container, O(log(size())).
3-4) Amortized constant if the insertion happens in the position just after(until C++11)/before(since C++11) the hint, logarithmic in the size of the container otherwise.
5-6) O(N*log(size() + N)), where N is the number of elements to insert.
