Quiz MCQ stl set iterator

What does s.insert() in the first part of the pair return?

And how does the bool return 0 if the element is already present in set and return 1 if it is not?

What will be the output of following C++ code?

#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
sets;
pair<set::iterator, bool> ret;
s.insert(1);
s.insert(5);
s.insert(10);
s.insert(3);
ret = s.insert(10);
cout<<ret.second<<endl;
return 0;
}

The single element versions (1) return a pair, with its member pair::first set to an iterator pointing to either the newly inserted element or to the equivalent element already in the set. The pair::second element in the pair is set to true if a new element was inserted or false if an equivalent element already existed.

output will be 0 . because 10 was already there in the set.
