            `Pred`]
    ]
    [
        [Keys can be compared using `key_compare` which is accessed by member function `key_comp()`,
         values can be compared using `value_compare` which is accessed by member function `value_comp()`.]
        [Keys can be hashed using `hasher` which is accessed by member function `hash_function()`,
         and checked for equality using `key_equal` which is accessed by member function `key_eq()`.
         There is no function object for compared or hashing values.]

        [Constructors have optional extra parameters for the comparison object.]
        [Constructors have optional extra parameters for the initial minimum
            number of buckets, a hash function and an equality object.]

        [Keys `k1`, `k2` are considered equivalent if

        [Member function `lower_bound(k)` and `upper_bound(k)`]
        [No equivalent. Since the elements aren't ordered `lower_bound` and
        `upper_bound` would be meaningless.]
    ]
    [
        [`equal_range(k)` returns an empty range at the position that k
            would be inserted if k isn't present in the container.]
        [`equal_range(k)` returns a range at the end of the container if
            k isn't present in the container. It can't return a positioned
            range as k could be inserted into multiple place. To find out the
            bucket that k would be inserted into use `bucket(k)`. But remember
            that an insert can cause the container to rehash - meaning that the
            element can be inserted into a different bucket.]

            be invalidated by calls to insert or rehash]. Pointers and

            the comparison object.]
        [Iterators iterate through the container in an arbitrary order, that
            can change as elements are inserted. Although, equivalent elements
            are always adjacent.]

        [No equivalent]
        [Local iterators can be used to iterate through individual buckets.
            (I don't think that the order of local iterators and iterators are
            required to have any correspondence.)]

        [Can be compared using the `==`, `!=`, `<`, `<=`, `>`, `>=` operators.]
        [No comparison operators are defined in the standard, although
            [link unordered.rationale.equality_operators
            implementations might extend the containers to support `==` and
