Renaming Ordered Sets to something better
By evenvalue, 3 days ago, In English

Hello Codeforces!

I wanted to discuss something extremely important. About the name for Ordered Sets.

The normal std::set is also ordered, then why is it not called ordered set? Ordered Sets aren't useful because they are just ordered, its because they also allow us to index the set.

Hence I believe Indexed Sets would be a better name for it. If you have any other suggestions for the name lmk!

Well, from my understanding it is called that as short for order statistic sets, since they provide order statistic about the set. But I agree, indexed set is a good name.
