class set {
public:
// Function 1:
const_reverse_iterator rbegin() const;
// Function 2:

NOTE: The class/parameter names in the prototype may not match the
version in the header file. Some have been modified to improve readability.

Description
The rbegin function returns a reverse bidirectional iterator that
points just beyond the end of the controlled sequence. The rend function
returns a reverse bidirectional iterator that points at the first element of
the sequence.
