Return Value: The function returns the current value

Below programs illustrate the above function:

Program 1:




// Java Program to demonstrates
// the get() function
  
import java.util.concurrent.atomic.AtomicBoolean;
  
public class GFG {
    public static void main(String args[])
    {
  
        // Initially value as false
        AtomicBoolean val
            = new AtomicBoolean(false);
  
        // Gets the current value
        boolean res = val.get();
  
        System.out.println("current value: "
                           + res);
    }
}


Output:

current value: false

Program 2:




// Java Program to demonstrates
// the get() function
  
import java.util.concurrent.atomic.AtomicBoolean;
  
public class GFG {
    public static void main(String args[])
    {
  
        // Initially value as true
        AtomicBoolean val = new AtomicBoolean(true);
        // Gets the current value
        boolean res = val.get();
  
        System.out.println("current value: "
                           + res);
    }
}
