 \tcode{flat_multiset}s, out of
 the basic sequence container kinds (or out of other program-defined sequence containers).

-\begin{note}
-The sequence containers
-offer the programmer different complexity trade-offs.
-\tcode{vector}
-is appropriate in most circumstances.
-\tcode{array}
-has a fixed size known during translation.
-\tcode{list} or \tcode{forward_list}
-support frequent insertions and deletions from the
-middle of the sequence.
-\tcode{deque}
-supports efficient insertions and deletions taking place at the beginning or at the
-end of the sequence.
-When choosing a container, remember \tcode{vector} is best;
-leave a comment to explain if you choose from the rest!
