Hi,
your question is bit unclear... what are you storing in the multimap logically. What I've understood is that you want to get the multiple values against the same key

multimap<int, string>  mm;
	mm.insert(std::make_pair(1, "a"));
	mm.insert(std::make_pair(1, "c"));
	mm.insert(std::make_pair(2, "d"));
	mm.insert(std::make_pair(2, "e"));

	typedef pair<multimap<int, string>::iterator, multimap<int, string>::iterator>  Pair_Range;
	Pair_Range  pRange = mm.equal_range(1);
	
	for (multimap<int, string>::iterator it = pRange.first; it != pRange.second; ++it) {
		cout << it->second<<endl;
	}

Hope this helps

I want to generate the following pattern using for() loop only.... how can i do this i've tried but unfortunately failed to solve ....

when user inputs 3
1 1 1 1 1
1 2 2 2 1
1 2 3 2 1
1 2 2 2 1
1 1 1 1 1

when user inputs 4;

1 1 1 1 1 1 1
1 2 2 2 2 2 1
1 2 3 3 3 2 1
1 2 3 4 3 2 1
1 2 3 3 3 2 1
1 1 1 1 1 1 1

I just want to know the algorithm or just a hint?
