The pollLast() method of java.util.concurrent.ConcurrentSkipListSet is an in-built function in Java which returns retrieves and removes the last (highest) element, or returns null if this set is empty.
Syntax:
public E pollLast()
Return Value: The function returns retrieves and removes the last (highest) element, or returns null if this set is empty.
Below programs illustrate the ConcurrentSkipListSet.pollLast() method:
Program 1:
// Java program to demonstrate pollLast()// method of ConcurrentSkipListSet  import java.util.concurrent.*;  class ConcurrentSkipListSetpollLastExample1 {    public static void main(String[] args)    {        // Creating a set object        ConcurrentSkipListSet<Integer> Lset = new ConcurrentSkipListSet<Integer>();          // Adding elements to this set        for (int i = 10; i <= 50; i += 10)            Lset.add(i);          // Printing the content of the set        System.out.println("Contents of the set: " + Lset);          // Retrieving and removing Last element of the set        System.out.println("The Last element of the set: " + Lset.pollLast());          // Printing the content of the set after pollLast()        System.out.println("Contents of the set after pollLast: " + Lset);    }} |
Contents of the set: [10, 20, 30, 40, 50] The Last element of the set: 50 Contents of the set after pollLast: [10, 20, 30, 40]
Program 2:
// Java program to demonstrate pollLast()// method of ConcurrentSkipListSet  import java.util.concurrent.*;  class ConcurrentSkipListSetpollLastExample2 {    public static void main(String[] args)    {        // Creating a set object        ConcurrentSkipListSet<Integer> Lset = new ConcurrentSkipListSet<Integer>();          // Printing the content of the set        System.out.println("Contents of the set: " + Lset);          // Retrieving and removing Last element of the set        System.out.println("The Last element of the set: " + Lset.pollLast());    }} |
Contents of the set: [] The Last element of the set: null
