std::list::size(3)	       C++ Standard Libary	      std::list::size(3)

NAME
     std::list::size - std::list::size

Synopsis
	size_type size() const; 	  (until C++11)
	size_type size() const noexcept;  (since C++11)

	Returns  the number of elements in the container, i.e. std::distance(be-
     gin(), end()).

Parameters
	(none)

Return value
	The number of elements in the container.

Complexity
	Constant or linear. (until C++11)
	Constant.	    (since C++11)

Example
	The following code uses size to display the  number  of  elements  in  a
     std::list:

     // Run this code

      #include <iostream>
      #include <list>

      int main()
      {
	  std::list<int> nums{1, 3, 5, 7};

	  std::cout << "nums contains " << nums.size() << " elements.\n";
      }

Output:
      nums contains 4 elements.
