Hello,friends! Recently , i was solving a problem on data structures from codeforces Merge Equals. In this problem , i used a sorted list of pairs stored in a set. I wanted to get the second element just greater than or equal to a given element(a pair in this case) . For ,this i used lower_bound function to first get the required element and the incremented the iterator. But, unfortunately ,it gave me the wrong answer. But, when i just removed the element corresponding to iterator (before incrementing it) and the again used it=st.lower_bound({x,y}), it gave me the right answer. So, I want to ask why accessing a pair by incrementing iterator doesn't work in my case. If anyone can throw some light on the concerned issue, it would be highly beneficial for me and others too.
