<h3>Complexity guarantees</h3>
The range constructor, and range constructor with compare, are in
general <tt>O(N * log(N))</tt>, where <tt>N</tt> is the size of the range. However,
they are linear in <tt>N</tt> if the range is already sorted by
<tt>value_comp()</tt>.
<P>
Insert with hint is logarithmic in general, but it is amortized
constant time if <tt>t</tt> is inserted immediately before <tt>p</tt>.
<P>
Insert range is in general <tt>O(N * log(N))</tt>, where <tt>N</tt> is the size of
the range. However, it is linear in <tt>N</tt> if the range is already
sorted by <tt>value_comp()</tt>.
<h3>Invariants</h3>
<Table border>
<TR>
<TD VAlign=top>
Strictly ascending order
</TD>
<TD VAlign=top>
The elements in a Unique Sorted Associative Container are always arranged
in strictly ascending order by key. That is, if <tt>a</tt> is a Unique Sorted
Associative Container, then <tt><A href="is_sorted.html">is_sorted</A>(a.begin(), a.end(),
a.value_comp())</tt> is always <tt>true</tt>. Furthermore, if <tt>i</tt> and <tt>j</tt>
are dereferenceable iterators in <tt>a</tt> such that <tt>i</tt> precedes <tt>j</tt>,
then <tt>a.value_comp()(*i, *j)</tt> is always <tt>true</tt>. <A href="#2">[2]</A>

<h3>Notes</h3>
<P><A name="1">[1]</A>
At present (early 1998), not all compilers support
"member templates". If your compiler supports member
templates then <tt>i</tt> and <tt>j</tt> may be of any type that
conforms to the <A href="InputIterator.html">Input Iterator</A>
requirements. If your compiler does not yet support member
templates, however, then <tt>i</tt> and <tt>j</tt> must be of type
<tt>const T*</tt> or of type <tt>X::const_iterator</tt>.
<P><A name="2">[2]</A>
This is a more stringent invariant than that of
<A href="SortedAssociativeContainer.html">Sorted Associative Container</A>.
In a <A href="SortedAssociativeContainer.html">Sorted Associative Container</A>
we merely know that every element is less
than or equal to its successor; in a
<A href="UniqueSortedAssociativeContainer.html">Unique Sorted Associative Container</A>, however,
we know that it must be less than its successor.
