Template argument type

Question

I was just trying to print whether argument is map or unordered map.

It is showing but with some random numbers. Is there any other way ? I remember something related to ::value but can't recall perfectly what it was... Any help on this ?

The name of a type returned from typeid() is implementation specific, but you can demangle it. Here is an example by another user:

Otherwise you would probably have to specialize the function template for whatever types you want to print, or perform type traits comparisons via std::is_same<>, which is somewhat tedious.
