CollationElementIterator tertiaryOrder() method in Java with Examples

The tertiaryOrder() method of java.text.CollationElementIterator class is used to provide the tertiary component of every collation element of CollationElementIterator object.

Syntax: 

public static final short tertiaryOrder(int order)

Parameter: This method takes a collation element as a parameter in the integer format for which a tertiary component has to be found.

Return Value: This method returns the tertiary component for the particular Collision element.

Below are the examples to illustrate the tertiaryOrder() method:

Example 1:  

Java




// Java program to demonstrate
// tertiaryOrder() method
   
import java.text.*;
import java.util.*;
import java.io.*;
   
public class GFG {
    public static void main(String[] argv)
    {
        // creating and initializing testString
        String test = "GeeksForGeeks";
   
        // creating and initializing
        // RuleBasedCollator object
        RuleBasedCollator rbc
            = (RuleBasedCollator)(Collator.getInstance());
   
        // creating and initializing
        // CollationElementIterator
        CollationElementIterator cel
            = rbc.getCollationElementIterator(test);
   
        // for iteration
        for (int i = 1; i <= test.length(); i++) {
   
            // getting tertiary component of every element
            // using tertiaryOrder() method
            int value
                = CollationElementIterator
                      .tertiaryOrder(cel.next());
   
            // display the result
            System.out.println("tertiary order "
                               + "for order "
                               + i + " is "
                               + value);
        }
    }
}


Output: 

tertiary order for order 1 is 1
tertiary order for order 2 is 0
tertiary order for order 3 is 0
tertiary order for order 4 is 0
tertiary order for order 5 is 0
tertiary order for order 6 is 1
tertiary order for order 7 is 0
tertiary order for order 8 is 0
tertiary order for order 9 is 1
tertiary order for order 10 is 0
tertiary order for order 11 is 0
tertiary order for order 12 is 0
tertiary order for order 13 is 0

 

Example 2: 

Java




// Java program to demonstrate
// tertiaryOrder() method
   
import java.text.*;
import java.util.*;
import java.io.*;
   
public class GFG {
    public static void main(String[] argv)
    {
        // creating and initializing testString
        String test = "aBcDeFgH<>?:";
   
        // creating and initializing
        // RuleBasedCollator object
        RuleBasedCollator rbc
            = (RuleBasedCollator)(Collator.getInstance());
   
        // creating and initializing
        // CollationElementIterator
        CollationElementIterator cel
            = rbc.getCollationElementIterator(test);
   
        // for iteration
        for (int i = 1; i <= test.length(); i++) {
   
            // getting tertiary component of every element
            // using tertiaryOrder() method
            int value
                = CollationElementIterator
                      .tertiaryOrder(cel.next());
   
            // display the result
            System.out.println("tertiary order "
                               + "for order "
                               + i + " is "
                               + value);
        }
    }
}


Output: 

tertiary order for order 1 is 0
tertiary order for order 2 is 1
tertiary order for order 3 is 0
tertiary order for order 4 is 1
tertiary order for order 5 is 0
tertiary order for order 6 is 1
tertiary order for order 7 is 0
tertiary order for order 8 is 1
tertiary order for order 9 is 0
tertiary order for order 10 is 0
tertiary order for order 11 is 0
tertiary order for order 12 is 0
