+If you find that a parsing program with this library does not release memory, please consider the following case and it maybe unrelated to this library.
 
 **Your program is compiled with glibc.** There is a tunable threshold that glibc uses to decide whether to actually return memory to the system or whether to cache it for later reuse. If in your program you make lots of small allocations and those small allocations are not a contiguous block and are presumably below the threshold, then they will not get returned to the OS.
 Here is a related issue [#1924](https://github.com/nlohmann/json/issues/1924).
 
 ### Further notes
 
-- The code contains numerous debug **assertions** which can be switched off by defining the preprocessor macro `NDEBUG`, see the [documentation of `assert`](https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/error/assert). In particular, note [`operator[]`](https://nlohmann.github.io/json/classnlohmann_1_1basic__json_a233b02b0839ef798942dd46157cc0fe6.html#a233b02b0839ef798942dd46157cc0fe6) implements **unchecked access** for const objects: If the given key is not present, the behavior is undefined (think of a dereferenced null pointer) and yields an [assertion failure](https://github.com/nlohmann/json/issues/289) if assertions are switched on. If you are not sure whether an element in an object exists, use checked access with the [`at()` function](https://nlohmann.github.io/json/classnlohmann_1_1basic__json_a73ae333487310e3302135189ce8ff5d8.html#a73ae333487310e3302135189ce8ff5d8). Furthermore, you can define `JSON_ASSERT(x)` to replace calls to `assert(x)`.

Furthermore, you can define `JSON_ASSERT(x)` to replace calls to `assert(x)`.
 - As the exact type of a number is not defined in the [JSON specification](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc8259.html), this library tries to choose the best fitting C++ number type automatically. As a result, the type `double` may be used to store numbers which may yield [**floating-point exceptions**](https://github.com/nlohmann/json/issues/181) in certain rare situations if floating-point exceptions have been unmasked in the calling code. These exceptions are not caused by the library and need to be fixed in the calling code, such as by re-masking the exceptions prior to calling library functions.
 - The code can be compiled without C++ **runtime type identification** features; that is, you can use the `-fno-rtti` compiler flag.
-- **Exceptions** are used widely within the library. They can, however, be switched off with either using the compiler flag `-fno-exceptions` or by defining the symbol `JSON_NOEXCEPTION`. In this case, exceptions are replaced by `abort()` calls. You can further control this behavior by defining `JSON_THROW_USER´` (overriding `throw`), `JSON_TRY_USER` (overriding `try`), and `JSON_CATCH_USER` (overriding `catch`). Note that `JSON_THROW_USER` should leave the current scope (e.g., by throwing or aborting), as continuing after it may yield undefined behavior.

+The folder contains the required files to create a [docset](https://kapeli.com/docsets) which can be used in
+documentation browsers like [Dash](https://kapeli.com/dash), [Velocity](https://velocity.silverlakesoftware.com), or
+[Zeal](https://zealdocs.org).
+
+The docset can be created with
+
+```sh
+make nlohmann_json.docset
+```
+
+The generated folder `nlohmann_json.docset` can then be opened in the documentation browser.

+
+Serializer that uses ADL ([Argument-Dependent Lookup](https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/adl)) to choose
+`to_json`/`from_json` functions from the types' namespaces.
+
+It is implemented similar to
+
+```cpp
+template<typename ValueType>
+struct adl_serializer {
+    template<typename BasicJsonType>
+    static void to_json(BasicJsonType& j, const T& value) {

+    static void from_json(const BasicJsonType& j, T& value) {
+        // same thing, but with the "from_json" method

+};
+```
+

+
+// (2)

+                   const bool ignore_comments = false);
+```
+
+Checks whether the input is valid JSON.
+
+1. Reads from a compatible input.
+2. Reads from a pair of character iterators
+    
+    The value_type of the iterator must be a integral type with size of 1, 2 or 4 bytes, which will be interpreted
+    respectively as UTF-8, UTF-16 and UTF-32.
+    
+Unlike the [`parse`](parse.md) function, this function neither throws an exception in case of invalid JSON input
+(i.e., a parse error) nor creates diagnostic information.
+
+## Template parameters
+
+`InputType`
+:   A compatible input, for instance:
+    
+    - an `std::istream` object
+    - a `FILE` pointer
+    - a C-style array of characters
+    - a pointer to a null-terminated string of single byte characters
+    - an object `obj` for which `begin(obj)` and `end(obj)` produces a valid pair of iterators.
+
+`IteratorType`
+:   a compatible iterator type
+
+## Parameters
+
+`i` (in)
+:   Input to parse from.
+
+`ignore_comments` (in)
+:   whether comments should be ignored and treated like whitespace (`#!cpp true`) or yield a parse error
+    (`#!cpp false`); (optional, `#!cpp false` by default)
+
+`first` (in)
+:   iterator to start of character range
+
+`last` (in)
+:   iterator to end of character range
+
+## Return value
+
+Whether the input is valid JSON.
+
+## Exception safety
+
+Strong guarantee: if an exception is thrown, there are no changes in the JSON value.
+
+## Complexity
+
+Linear in the length of the input. The parser is a predictive LL(1) parser.
+
+## Notes
+
+(1) A UTF-8 byte order mark is silently ignored.
+
+## Examples
+
+??? example
+
+    The example below demonstrates the `accept()` function reading from a string.
+
+    ```cpp
+    --8<-- "examples/accept__string.cpp"
+    ```
+    
+    Output:
+    
+    ```json
+    --8<-- "examples/accept__string.output"
+    ```
+
+## Version history
+

+# basic_json::array
+
+```cpp
+static basic_json array(initializer_list_t init = {});
+```
+
+Creates a JSON array value from a given initializer list. That is, given a list of values `a, b, c`, creates the JSON
+value `#!json [a, b, c]`. If the initializer list is empty, the empty array `#!json []` is created.
+
+## Parameters
+
+`init` (in)
+:   initializer list with JSON values to create an array from (optional)
+
+## Return value
+
+JSON array value
+
+## Exception safety
+
+Strong guarantee: if an exception is thrown, there are no changes in the JSON value.
+
+## Complexity
+
+Linear in the size of `init`.
+
+## Notes
+
+This function is only needed to express two edge cases that cannot be realized with the initializer list constructor
+([`basic_json(initializer_list_t, bool, value_t)`](basic_json.md)). These cases are:
+
+1. creating an array whose elements are all pairs whose first element is a string -- in this case, the initializer list
+   constructor would create an object, taking the first elements as keys
+2. creating an empty array -- passing the empty initializer list to the initializer list constructor yields an empty
+   object
+
+## Examples

+# basic_json::array_t
+
+```cpp
+using array_t = ArrayType<basic_json, AllocatorType<basic_json>>;
+```
+
+The type used to store JSON arrays.
+
+[RFC 7159](http://rfc7159.net/rfc7159) describes JSON arrays as follows:
+> An array is an ordered sequence of zero or more values.
+
+To store objects in C++, a type is defined by the template parameters explained below.
+
+## Template parameters
+
+`ArrayType`
+:   container type to store arrays (e.g., `std::vector` or `std::list`)
+
+`AllocatorType`
+:   the allocator to use for objects (e.g., `std::allocator`)
+
+## Notes
+
+#### Default type
+
+With the default values for `ArrayType` (`std::vector`) and `AllocatorType` (`std::allocator`), the default value for
+`array_t` is:
+
+```cpp
+std::vector<
+  basic_json, // value_type
+  std::allocator<basic_json> // allocator_type
+>
+```
+
+#### Limits
+
+[RFC 7159](http://rfc7159.net/rfc7159) specifies:
+> An implementation may set limits on the maximum depth of nesting.
+
+In this class, the array's limit of nesting is not explicitly constrained. However, a maximum depth of nesting may be
+introduced by the compiler or runtime environment. A theoretical limit can be queried by calling the
+[`max_size`](max_size.md) function of a JSON array.
+
+#### Storage
+
+Arrays are stored as pointers in a `basic_json` type. That is, for any access to array values, a pointer of type
+`#!cpp array_t*` must be dereferenced.

+      in this case, calling `at` with a key makes no sense. See example below.
+    - Throws [`out_of_range.403`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptionout_of_range403) if the key `key` is is not
+      stored in the object; that is, `find(key) == end()`. See example below.
+3. The function can throw the following exceptions:
+    - Throws [`parse_error.106`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptionparse_error106) if an array index in the passed
+      JSON pointer `ptr` begins with '0'. See example below.
+    - Throws [`parse_error.109`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptionparse_error109) if an array index in the passed
+      JSON pointer `ptr` is not a number. See example below.
+    - Throws [`out_of_range.401`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptionout_of_range401) if an array index in the passed
+      JSON pointer `ptr` is out of range. See example below.
+    - Throws [`out_of_range.402`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptionout_of_range402) if the array index '-' is used
+      in the passed JSON pointer `ptr`. As `at` provides checked access (and no elements are implicitly inserted), the
+      index '-' is always invalid. See example below.
+    - Throws [`out_of_range.403`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptionout_of_range403) if the JSON pointer describes a
+      key of an object which cannot be found. See example below.
+    - Throws [`out_of_range.404`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptionout_of_range404) if the JSON pointer `ptr` can
+      not be resolved. See example below.

+
+1. Create an empty JSON value with a given type. The value will be default initialized with an empty value which depends
+   on the type:
+   
+    Value type  | initial value
+    ----------- | -------------
+    null        | `#!json null`
+    boolean     | `#!json false`
+    string      | `#!json ""`
+    number      | `#!json 0`
+    object      | `#!json {}`
+    array       | `#!json []`
+    binary      | empty array
+
+2. Create a `#!json null` JSON value. It either takes a null pointer as parameter (explicitly creating `#!json null`)
+   or no parameter (implicitly creating `#!json null`). The passed null pointer itself is not read -- it is only used to
+   choose the right constructor.
+
+3. This is a "catch all" constructor for all compatible JSON types; that is, types for which a `to_json()` method
+   exists. The constructor forwards the parameter `val` to that method (to `json_serializer<U>::to_json` method with
+   `U = uncvref_t<CompatibleType>`, to be exact).
+   
+    Template type `CompatibleType` includes, but is not limited to, the following types:
+
+    - **arrays**: [`array_t`](array_t.md) and all kinds of compatible containers such as `std::vector`, `std::deque`,
+     `std::list`, `std::forward_list`, `std::array`, `std::valarray`, `std::set`, `std::unordered_set`, `std::multiset`,
+     and `std::unordered_multiset` with a `value_type` from which a `basic_json` value can be constructed.
+    - **objects**: [`object_t`](object_t.md) and all kinds of compatible associative containers such as `std::map`,
+     `std::unordered_map`, `std::multimap`, and `std::unordered_multimap` with a `key_type` compatible to `string_t`
+     and a `value_type` from which a `basic_json` value can be constructed.
+    - **strings**: `string_t`, string literals, and all compatible string containers can be used.
+    - **numbers**: [`number_integer_t`](number_integer_t.md), [`number_unsigned_t`](number_unsigned_t.md),
+     [`number_float_t`](number_float_t.md), and all convertible number types such as `int`, `size_t`, `int64_t`, `float`
+     or `double` can be used.
+    - **boolean**: `boolean_t` / `bool` can be used.
+    - **binary**: `binary_t` / `std::vector<uint8_t>` may be used; unfortunately because string literals cannot be
+     distinguished from binary character arrays by the C++ type system, all types compatible with `const char*` will be
+     directed to the string constructor instead. This is both for backwards compatibility, and due to the fact that a
+     binary type is not a standard JSON type.
+    
+    See the examples below.
+
+4. This is a constructor for existing `basic_json` types. It does not hijack copy/move constructors, since the parameter
+   has different template arguments than the current ones.
+
+    The constructor tries to convert the internal `m_value` of the parameter.
+
+5. Creates a JSON value of type array or object from the passed initializer list `init`. In case `type_deduction` is
+   `#!cpp true` (default), the type of the JSON value to be created is deducted from the initializer list `init`
+   according to the following rules:
+   
+    1. If the list is empty, an empty JSON object value `{}` is created.
+    2. If the list consists of pairs whose first element is a string, a JSON object value is created where the first
+      elements of the pairs are treated as keys and the second elements are as values.
+    3. In all other cases, an array is created.
+    
+    The rules aim to create the best fit between a C++ initializer list and JSON values. The rationale is as follows:
+    
+    1. The empty initializer list is written as `#!cpp {}` which is exactly an empty JSON object.
+    2. C++ has no way of describing mapped types other than to list a list of pairs. As JSON requires that keys must be
+       of type string, rule 2 is the weakest constraint one can pose on initializer lists to interpret them as an
+       object.
+    3. In all other cases, the initializer list could not be interpreted as JSON object type, so interpreting it as JSON
+       array type is safe.
+    
+    With the rules described above, the following JSON values cannot be expressed by an initializer list:
+    
+    - the empty array (`#!json []`): use `array(initializer_list_t)` with an empty initializer list in this case
+    - arrays whose elements satisfy rule 2: use `array(initializer_list_t)` with the same initializer list in this case
+        
+6. Constructs a JSON array value by creating `cnt` copies of a passed value. In case `cnt` is `0`, an empty array is
+   created.
+
+7. Constructs the JSON value with the contents of the range `[first, last)`. The semantics depends on the different
+   types a JSON value can have:
+
+    - In case of a `#!json null` type, [invalid_iterator.206](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptioninvalid_iterator206)
+      is thrown.
+    - In case of other primitive types (number, boolean, or string), `first` must be `begin()` and `last` must be
+      `end()`. In this case, the value is copied. Otherwise,
+      [`invalid_iterator.204`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptioninvalid_iterator204) is thrown.
+    - In case of structured types (array, object), the constructor behaves as similar versions for `std::vector` or
+      `std::map`; that is, a JSON array or object is constructed from the values in the range.
+
+8. Creates a copy of a given JSON value.
+
+9. Move constructor. Constructs a JSON value with the contents of the given value `other` using move semantics. It
+   "steals" the resources from `other` and leaves it as JSON `#!json null` value.
+
+## Template parameters
+
+`CompatibleType`
+:   a type such that:
+
+    - `CompatibleType` is not derived from `std::istream`,
+    - `CompatibleType` is not `basic_json` (to avoid hijacking copy/move constructors),
+    - `CompatibleType` is not a different `basic_json` type (i.e. with different template arguments)
+    - `CompatibleType` is not a `basic_json` nested type (e.g., `json_pointer`, `iterator`, etc.)
+    - `json_serializer<U>` (with `U = uncvref_t<CompatibleType>`) has a `to_json(basic_json_t&, CompatibleType&&)`
+       method
+
+`BasicJsonType`:
+:   a type such that:
+
+    - `BasicJsonType` is a `basic_json` type.
+    - `BasicJsonType` has different template arguments than `basic_json_t`.
+
+## Parameters
+
+`v` (in)
+:   the type of the value to create
+
+`val` (in)
+:   the value to be forwarded to the respective constructor
+
+`init` (in)
+:   initializer list with JSON values
+
+`type_deduction` (in)
+:   internal parameter; when set to `#!cpp true`, the type of the JSON value is deducted from the initializer list
+    `init`; when set to `#!cpp false`, the type provided via `manual_type` is forced. This mode is used by the functions
+    `array(initializer_list_t)` and `object(initializer_list_t)`.
+
+`manual_type` (in)
+:   internal parameter; when `type_deduction` is set to `#!cpp false`, the created JSON value will use the provided type
+    (only `value_t::array` and `value_t::object` are valid); when `type_deduction` is set to `#!cpp true`, this
+    parameter has no effect
+
+`cnt` (in)
+:   the number of JSON copies of `val` to create
+
+`first` (in)
+:   begin of the range to copy from (included)
+
+`last` (in)
+:   end of the range to copy from (excluded)
+
+`other` (in)
+:   the JSON value to copy/move

+
+        - Iterators `first` and `last` must be initialized. **This precondition is enforced with an assertion (see
+          warning).** If assertions are switched off, a violation of this precondition yields undefined behavior.
+        - Range `[first, last)` is valid. Usually, this precondition cannot be checked efficiently. Only certain edge

+## Notes
+
+Note, this function exists because of the difficulty in correctly specifying the correct template overload in the

+
+```cpp
+using binary_t = byte_container_with_subtype<BinaryType>;
+```
+
+This type is a type designed to carry binary data that appears in various serialized formats, such as CBOR's Major Type
+2, MessagePack's bin, and BSON's generic binary subtype. This type is NOT a part of standard JSON and exists solely for
+compatibility with these binary types. As such, it is simply defined as an ordered sequence of zero or more byte values.
+
+Additionally, as an implementation detail, the subtype of the binary data is carried around as a `std::uint8_t`, which
+is compatible with both of the binary data formats that use binary subtyping, (though the specific numbering is
+incompatible with each other, and it is up to the user to translate between them).
+
+[CBOR's RFC 7049](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7049) describes this type as:
+> Major type 2: a byte string. The string's length in bytes is represented following the rules for positive integers
+> (major type 0).
+
+[MessagePack's documentation on the bin type
+family](https://github.com/msgpack/msgpack/blob/master/spec.md#bin-format-family) describes this type as:
+> Bin format family stores an byte array in 2, 3, or 5 bytes of extra bytes in addition to the size of the byte array.
+
+[BSON's specifications](http://bsonspec.org/spec.html) describe several binary types; however, this type is intended to
+represent the generic binary type which has the description:
+> Generic binary subtype - This is the most commonly used binary subtype and should be the 'default' for drivers and
+> tools.
+
+None of these impose any limitations on the internal representation other than the basic unit of storage be some type of
+array whose parts are decomposable into bytes.
+
+The default representation of this binary format is a `#!cpp std::vector<std::uint8_t>`, which is a very common way to
+represent a byte array in modern C++.
+
+## Template parameters
+
+`BinaryType`
+:   container type to store arrays
+
+## Notes
+
+#### Default type
+
+The default values for `BinaryType` is `#!cpp std::vector<std::uint8_t>`.
+
+#### Storage
+
+Binary Arrays are stored as pointers in a `basic_json` type. That is, for any access to array values, a pointer of the
+type `#!cpp binary_t*` must be dereferenced.
+
+#### Notes on subtypes
+
+- CBOR
+    - Binary values are represented as byte strings. Subtypes are written as tags.
+
+- MessagePack
+    - If a subtype is given and the binary array contains exactly 1, 2, 4, 8, or 16 elements, the fixext family (fixext1,
+      fixext2, fixext4, fixext8) is used. For other sizes, the ext family (ext8, ext16, ext32) is used. The subtype is
+      then added as singed 8-bit integer.
+    - If no subtype is given, the bin family (bin8, bin16, bin32) is used.
+
+- BSON
+    - If a subtype is given, it is used and added as unsigned 8-bit integer.
+    - If no subtype is given, the generic binary subtype 0x00 is used.

+
+// (3)

+
+// (4)
+void erase(const size_type idx);
+```
+
+1. Removes an element from a JSON value specified by iterator `pos`. The iterator `pos` must be valid and
+   dereferenceable. Thus the `end()` iterator (which is valid, but is not dereferenceable) cannot be used as a value for
+   `pos`.
+   
+    If called on a primitive type other than `#!json null`, the resulting JSON value will be `#!json null`.
+
+2. Remove an element range specified by `[first; last)` from a JSON value. The iterator `first` does not need to be
+   dereferenceable if `first == last`: erasing an empty range is a no-op.
+   
+    If called on a primitive type other than `#!json null`, the resulting JSON value will be `#!json null`.

+1. Iterator following the last removed element. If the iterator `pos` refers to the last element, the `end()` iterator

+2. Iterator following the last removed element. If the iterator `last` refers to the last element, the `end()` iterator

+      which does not belong to the current JSON value; example: `"iterators do not fit current value"`
+    - Throws [`invalid_iterator.204`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptioninvalid_iterator204) if called on a
+      primitive type with invalid iterators (i.e., if `first != begin()` and `last != end()`); example: `"iterators out

+      `"array index 17 is out of range"`
+
+## Exception safety
+
+Strong exception safety: if an exception occurs, the original value stays intact.
+
+## Complexity
+
+1. The complexity depends on the type:
+       - objects: amortized constant
+       - arrays: linear in distance between `pos` and the end of the container
+       - strings and binary: linear in the length of the member
+       - other types: constant
+2. The complexity depends on the type:
+       - objects: `log(size()) + std::distance(first, last)`
+       - arrays: linear in the distance between `first` and `last`, plus linear
+         in the distance between `last` and end of the container
+       - strings and binary: linear in the length of the member
+       - other types: constant
+3. `log(size()) + count(key)`
+4. Linear in distance between `idx` and the end of the container.
+
+## Notes
+
+1. Invalidates iterators and references at or after the point of the
+   erase, including the `end()` iterator.
+2. /
+3. References and iterators to the erased elements are invalidated. Other references and iterators are not affected.

+
+Deserializes a given input to a JSON value using the MessagePack serialization format.
+
+1. Reads from a compatible input.
+2. Reads from an iterator range.
+
+## Template parameters
+
+`InputType`
+:   A compatible input, for instance:
+    
+    - an `std::istream` object
+    - a `FILE` pointer
+    - a C-style array of characters
+    - a pointer to a null-terminated string of single byte characters
+    - an object `obj` for which `begin(obj)` and `end(obj)` produces a valid pair of iterators.
+
+`IteratorType`
+:   a compatible iterator type
+
+## Parameters
+
+`i` (in)
+:   an input in MessagePack format convertible to an input adapter
+
+`first` (in)
+:   iterator to start of the input
+
+`last` (in)
+:   iterator to end of the input
+
+`strict` (in)
+:   whether to expect the input to be consumed until EOF (`#!cpp true` by default)
+
+`allow_exceptions` (in)
+:   whether to throw exceptions in case of a parse error (optional, `#!cpp true` by default)
+
+## Return value
+
+deserialized JSON value; in case of a parse error and `allow_exceptions` set to `#!cpp false`, the return value will be
+`value_t::discarded`.  The latter can be checked with [`is_discarded`](is_discarded.md).
+
+## Exception safety
+
+Strong guarantee: if an exception is thrown, there are no changes in the JSON value.
+
+## Complexity
+
+Linear in the size of the input.
+
+## Example
+
+??? example
+
+    The example shows the deserialization of a byte vector in MessagePack format to a JSON value.

+```cpp
+constexpr bool is_discarded() const noexcept;
+```
+
+This function returns `#!cpp true` for a JSON value if either:
+
+- the value was discarded during parsing with a callback function (see [`parser_callback_t`](parser_callback_t.md)), or
+- the value is the result of parsing invalid JSON with parameter `allow_exceptions` set to `#!cpp false`; see
+  [`parse`](parse.md) for more information.

+`#!cpp true` if type is discarded, `#!cpp false` otherwise.
+
+## Exception safety
+
+No-throw guarantee: this member function never throws exceptions.
+
+## Complexity
+
+Constant.
+
+## Notes
+
+!!! note
+
+    Discarded values are never compared equal with [`operator==`](operator_eq.md). That is, checking whether a JSON
+    value `j` is discarded will only work via:
+    
+    ```cpp
+    j.is_discarded()
+    ```
+    
+    because
+    
+    ```cpp
+    j == json::value_t::discarded
+    ```
+    
+    will always be `#!cpp false`.
+
+!!! note
+
+    When a value is discarded by a callback function (see [`parser_callback_t`](parser_callback_t.md)) during parsing,
+    then it is removed when it is part of a structured value. For instance, if the second value of an array is discared,
+    instead of `#!json [null, discarded, false]`, the array `#!json [null, false]` is returned. Only if the top-level
+    value is discarded, the return value of the `parse` call is discarded.
+
+This function will always be `#!cpp false` for JSON values after parsing. That is, discarded values can only occur
+during parsing, but will be removed when inside a structured value or replaced by null in other cases.

+The type used to store JSON numbers (floating-point).
+
+[RFC 7159](http://rfc7159.net/rfc7159) describes numbers as follows:
+> The representation of numbers is similar to that used in most programming languages. A number is represented in base
+> 10 using decimal digits. It contains an integer component that may be prefixed with an optional minus sign, which may
+> be followed by a fraction part and/or an exponent part. Leading zeros are not allowed. (...) Numeric values that
+> cannot be represented in the grammar below (such as Infinity and NaN) are not permitted.
+
+This description includes both integer and floating-point numbers. However, C++ allows more precise storage if it is
+known whether the number is a signed integer, an unsigned integer or a floating-point number. Therefore, three different
+types, [`number_integer_t`](number_integer_t.md), [`number_unsigned_t`](number_unsigned_t.md) and `number_float_t` are
+used.
+
+To store floating-point numbers in C++, a type is defined by the template parameter `NumberFloatType` which chooses the
+type to use.
+
+## Notes
+
+#### Default type
+
+With the default values for `NumberFloatType` (`double`), the default value for `number_float_t` is `#!cpp double`.
+
+#### Default behavior
+
+- The restrictions about leading zeros is not enforced in C++. Instead, leading zeros in floating-point literals will be
+  ignored. Internally, the value will be stored as decimal number. For instance, the C++ floating-point literal `01.2`
+  will be serialized to `1.2`. During deserialization, leading zeros yield an error.
+- Not-a-number (NaN) values will be serialized to `null`.
+
+#### Limits
+
+[RFC 7159](http://rfc7159.net/rfc7159) states:
+> This specification allows implementations to set limits on the range and precision of numbers accepted. Since software
+> that implements IEEE 754-2008 binary64 (double precision) numbers is generally available and widely used, good
+> interoperability can be achieved by implementations that expect no more precision or range than these provide, in the
+> sense that implementations will approximate JSON numbers within the expected precision.
+
+This implementation does exactly follow this approach, as it uses double precision floating-point numbers. Note values
+smaller than `-1.79769313486232e+308` and values greater than `1.79769313486232e+308` will be stored as NaN internally

+#### Limits
+
+[RFC 7159](http://rfc7159.net/rfc7159) specifies:

+will be automatically be stored as [`number_unsigned_t`](number_unsigned_t.md) or [`number_float_t`](number_float_t.md).
+

+> The representation of numbers is similar to that used in most programming languages. A number is represented in base
+> 10 using decimal digits. It contains an integer component that may be prefixed with an optional minus sign, which may
+> be followed by a fraction part and/or an exponent part. Leading zeros are not allowed. (...) Numeric values that
+> cannot be represented in the grammar below (such as Infinity and NaN) are not permitted.
+
+This description includes both integer and floating-point numbers. However, C++ allows more precise storage if it is
+known whether the number is a signed integer, an unsigned integer or a floating-point number. Therefore, three different
+types, [`number_integer_t`](number_integer_t.md), `number_unsigned_t` and [`number_float_t`](number_float_t.md) are
+used.
+
+To store unsigned integer numbers in C++, a type is defined by the template parameter `NumberUnsignedType` which chooses
+the type to use.
+
+## Notes
+
+#### Default type
+
+With the default values for `NumberUnsignedType` (`std::uint64_t`), the default value for `number_unsigned_t` is
+`#!cpp std::uint64_t`.
+
+#### Default behavior
+
+- The restrictions about leading zeros is not enforced in C++. Instead, leading zeros in integer literals lead to an
+  interpretation as octal number. Internally, the value will be stored as decimal number. For instance, the C++ integer 
+  literal `010` will be serialized to `8`. During deserialization, leading zeros yield an error.
+- Not-a-number (NaN) values will be serialized to `null`.
+
+#### Limits
+
+[RFC 7159](http://rfc7159.net/rfc7159) specifies:
+> An implementation may set limits on the range and precision of numbers.
+
+When the default type is used, the maximal integer number that can be stored is `18446744073709551615` (UINT64_MAX) and
+the minimal integer number that can be stored is `0`. Integer numbers that are out of range will yield over/underflow
+when used in a constructor. During deserialization, too large or small integer numbers will be automatically be stored
+as [`number_integer_t`](number_integer_t.md) or [`number_float_t`](number_float_t.md).
+
+[RFC 7159](http://rfc7159.net/rfc7159) further states:
+> Note that when such software is used, numbers that are integers and are in the range \f$[-2^{53}+1, 2^{53}-1]\f$ are
+> interoperable in the sense that implementations will agree exactly on their numeric values.
+
+As this range is a subrange (when considered in conjunction with the `number_integer_t` type) of the exactly supported
+range [0, UINT64_MAX], this class's integer type is interoperable.
+
+#### Storage
+
+Integer number values are stored directly inside a `basic_json` type.

+# basic_json::object
+
+```cpp
+static basic_json object(initializer_list_t init = {});
+```
+
+Creates a JSON object value from a given initializer list. The initializer lists elements must be pairs, and their first
+elements must be strings. If the initializer list is empty, the empty object `#!json {}` is created.
+
+## Parameters
+
+`init` (in)
+:   initializer list with JSON values to create an object from (optional)
+
+## Return value
+
+JSON object value
+
+## Exceptions
+
+Throws [`type_error.301`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptiontype_error301) if `init` is not a list of pairs whose
+first elements are strings. In this case, no object can be created. When such a value is passed to
+`basic_json(initializer_list_t, bool, value_t)`, an array would have been created from the passed initializer list
+`init`. See example below.
+
+## Exception safety
+
+Strong guarantee: if an exception is thrown, there are no changes in the JSON value.
+
+## Complexity
+
+Linear in the size of `init`.
+
+## Notes
+
+This function is only added for symmetry reasons. In contrast to the related function `array(initializer_list_t)`, there
+are no cases which can only be expressed by this function. That is, any initializer list `init` can also be passed to
+the initializer list constructor `basic_json(initializer_list_t, bool, value_t)`.
+    
+## Examples
+
+??? example
+
+    The following code shows an example for the `object` function.
+
+    ```cpp
+    --8<-- "examples/object.cpp"

+
+The type used to store JSON objects.
+
+[RFC 7159](http://rfc7159.net/rfc7159) describes JSON objects as follows:
+> An object is an unordered collection of zero or more name/value pairs, where a name is a string and a value is a
+> string, number, boolean, null, object, or array.
+
+To store objects in C++, a type is defined by the template parameters described below.
+
+## Template parameters
+
+`ObjectType`
+:   the container to store objects (e.g., `std::map` or `std::unordered_map`)
+
+`StringType`
+:   the type of the keys or names (e.g., `std::string`). The comparison function `std::less<StringType>` is used to
+    order elements inside the container.
+
+`AllocatorType`
+:   the allocator to use for objects (e.g., `std::allocator`)
+
+## Notes
+
+#### Default type
+
+With the default values for `ObjectType` (`std::map`), `StringType` (`std::string`), and `AllocatorType`
+(`std::allocator`), the default value for `object_t` is:
+
+```cpp
+// until C++14
+std::map<
+  std::string, // key_type
+  basic_json, // value_type
+  std::less<std::string>, // key_compare
+  std::allocator<std::pair<const std::string, basic_json>> // allocator_type
+>
+
+// since C++14
+std::map<
+  std::string, // key_type
+  basic_json, // value_type
+  std::less<>, // key_compare
+  std::allocator<std::pair<const std::string, basic_json>> // allocator_type
+>
+```
+
+See [`object_comparator_t`](object_comparator_t.md) for more information.
+
+#### Behavior
+
+The choice of `object_t` influences the behavior of the JSON class. With the default type, objects have the following
+behavior:
+
+- When all names are unique, objects will be interoperable in the sense that all software implementations receiving that
+  object will agree on the name-value mappings.
+- When the names within an object are not unique, it is unspecified which one of the values for a given key will be
+  chosen. For instance, `#!json {"key": 2, "key": 1}` could be equal to either `#!json {"key": 1}` or
+  `#!json {"key": 2}`.
+- Internally, name/value pairs are stored in lexicographical order of the names. Objects will also be serialized (see
+  [`dump`](dump.md)) in this order. For instance, `#!json {"b": 1, "a": 2}` and `#!json {"a": 2, "b": 1}` will be stored
+  and serialized as `#!json {"a": 2, "b": 1}`.
+- When comparing objects, the order of the name/value pairs is irrelevant. This makes objects interoperable in the sense
+  that they will not be affected by these differences. For instance, `#!json {"b": 1, "a": 2}` and
+  `#!json {"a": 2, "b": 1}` will be treated as equal.
+
+#### Limits
+
+[RFC 7159](http://rfc7159.net/rfc7159) specifies:
+> An implementation may set limits on the maximum depth of nesting.
+
+In this class, the object's limit of nesting is not explicitly constrained. However, a maximum depth of nesting may be
+introduced by the compiler or runtime environment. A theoretical limit can be queried by calling the
+[`max_size`](max_size.md) function of a JSON object.
+
+#### Storage
+
+Objects are stored as pointers in a `basic_json` type. That is, for any access to object values, a pointer of type
+`object_t*` must be dereferenced.
+
+#### Object key order
+
+The order name/value pairs are added to the object is *not* preserved by the library. Therefore, iterating an object may
+return name/value pairs in a different order than they were originally stored. In fact, keys will be traversed in
+alphabetical order as `std::map` with `std::less` is used by default. Please note this behavior conforms to
+[RFC 7159](http://rfc7159.net/rfc7159), because any order implements the specified "unordered" nature of JSON objects.

+
+2. Inserts the given element `val` to the JSON object. If the function is called on a JSON null value, an empty object

+
+    `init` is converted into an object element and added using `operator+=(const typename object_t::value_type&)`.
+    Otherwise, `init` is converted to a JSON value and added using `operator+=(basic_json&&)`.
