1,2) Returns a range containing all elements with key `key` in the container. The range is defined by two iterators, the first pointing to the first element of the wanted range and the second pointing past the last element of the range.
3,4) Returns a range containing all elements in the container with key equivalent to `x`. This overload only participates in overload resolution if the qualified-id Hash::transparent_key_equal is valid and denotes a type. This assumes that such Hash is callable with both K and Key type, and that its key_equal is transparent, which, together, allows calling this function without constructing an instance of `Key`.

If present, the `hash` parameter may be used to pass a pre-computed hash value as an optimization. The behavior is undefined if invoking hash_function() on the key passed do not produce the same value as `hash`. | (since C++20)

### Parameters

key | - | key value to compare the elements to
x | - | a value of any type that can be transparently compared with a key
hash | - | the hash value of the key

### Return value

std::pair containing a pair of iterators defining the wanted range. If there are no such elements, past-the-end (see end()) iterators are returned as both elements of the pair.

### Complexity

Average case linear in the number of elements with the key `key`, worst case linear in the size of the container.
