try passing by reference:

for (auto& z : m) { ... }

Right now z is just a copy of the pair in the map. In general, in the code

for (auto x : v) { ... }

each x will be a copy of an element in v, and changes to x won't be reflected in v. Maybe read about references somewhere to learn more details.

In range-based loops

  • Using for (auto x : container) mean you doing with copy of x and it is changable (but not the variable in the container)
  • Using for (auto &x : container) mean you doing with reference of x and it is changable
  • Using for (const auto x : container) mean you doing with copy of x and it is unchangable
  • Using for (const auto &x : container) mean you doing with reference of x and it is unchanable

If you use large container and not want to change it, you should use for (const auto &x : container) since it wont have to waste time on creating copies then detroys them

If you want the variable to be changable, you should use for (auto &x : container)
