Discussion:
This is from editorial issue #1088:
It is not always made explicit whether the requirement is referring to time or space complexity, or both."Linear time." vs. "Linear."
"Constant time." vs. "Constant."
16.3.2.4 [structure.specifications] says that the Complexity element specifies "the time and/or space complexity of the function", so being explicit about this would be good.
Examples:[sequence.reqmts] a.clear()
[deque.cons]
[vector.cons]
[map.cons]
[multimap.cons]
[set.cons]
[multiset.cons]
[unord.map.cnstr]
[unord.multimap.cnstr]
etc.
