Does initializing std::vector with `{{}}` cause undefined behavior?

Question

I think I didn't understand the initialization of std::vector.

The code below seems to compile and run fine with gcc, clang, and MSVC.

#include <iostream>
#include <vector>
int main() {
    std::vector<int> v{{}};

    v[10] = 11; // if initialize with v{}, segmentation fault.

    std::cout << "v[10]:" << v[10] << std::endl; // prints v[10]:11
    
    for (auto e : v) // prints only v[x]:0
        std::cout << "v[x]:" << e << std::endl;    
}

// result:
// v[10]:11
// v[x]:0

Is accessing the element with v[10] causing an undefined behavior?

Why does the above code with v{{}} run fine, but not with v{}?

Edit) Originally I didn't use the correct terminology, my fault. When I said 'not compiled', I was trying to say 'not run(after compile)'.

Answer 1

std::vector<int> v{};

This initializes v as a vector of size 0. Attempting to access any element in it results in Undefined Behavior. v[10] is out of bounds and UB.

std::vector<int> v{{}};

This initializes v as a vector with a single element. That single element is initialized with {} i.e. int{} i.e. 0. Attempting to access any element except v[0] results in UB. v[10] causes UB.
