AbstractSet toArray() method in Java with Example

The toArray() method of Java AbstractSet is used to form an array of the same elements as that of the AbstractSet. Basically, it copies all the element from a AbstractSet to a new array.

Syntax:

Object[] arr = AbstractSet.toArray()

Parameters: The method does not take any parameters.

Return Value: The method returns an array containing the elements similar to the AbstractSet.

Below programs illustrate the AbstractSet.toArray() method:

Program 1:




// Java code to illustrate toArray()
  
import java.util.*;
  
public class AbstractSetDemo {
    public static void main(String args[])
    {
        // Creating an empty AbstractSet
        AbstractSet<String>
            abs_col = new TreeSet<String>();
  
        // Use add() method to add
        // elements into the AbstractSet
        abs_col.add("Welcome");
        abs_col.add("To");
        abs_col.add("Geeks");
        abs_col.add("For");
        abs_col.add("Geeks");
  
        // Displaying the AbstractSet
        System.out.println("The AbstractSet: "
                           + abs_col);
  
        // Creating the array and using toArray()
        Object[] arr = abs_col.toArray();
  
        System.out.println("The array is:");
        for (int j = 0; j < arr.length; j++)
            System.out.println(arr[j]);
    }
}


Output:

The AbstractSet: [For, Geeks, To, Welcome]
The array is:
For
Geeks
To
Welcome

Program 2:




// Java code to illustrate toArray()
  
import java.util.*;
  
public class AbstractSetDemo {
    public static void main(String args[])
    {
        // Creating an empty AbstractSet
        AbstractSet<Integer>
            abs_col = new TreeSet<Integer>();
  
        // Use add() method to add
        // elements into the AbstractSet
        abs_col.add(10);
        abs_col.add(15);
        abs_col.add(30);
        abs_col.add(20);
        abs_col.add(5);
        abs_col.add(25);
  
        // Displaying the AbstractSet
        System.out.println("The AbstractSet: "
                           + abs_col);
  
        // Creating the array and using toArray()
        Object[] arr = abs_col.toArray();
  
        System.out.println("The array is:");
        for (int j = 0; j < arr.length; j++)
            System.out.println(arr[j]);
    }
}


Output:

The AbstractSet: [5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30]
The array is:
5
10
15
20
25
30
