A map requires you to give it 2 types - the key type and the value type. So, if you wanted a map of string to int, i.e. A unique identifier of type string referencing a value of type int, then the most readable way is to do it like this:
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8

#include <map>
#include <string>

// ...

std::map<std::string, int> h;
h["key"] = 5;
h["other"] = 18;
h["HF"] = 140;

Or you can use the std::make_pair(...) helper function with insert

#include <map>
#include <string>

// ...

std::map<std::string, int> h;
h.insert(std::make_pair("key",5));
h.insert(std::make_pair("other",18));
h.insert(std::make_pair("HF",140));
