The toArray() method of Floats Class in the Guava library is used to convert the float values, passed as the parameter to this method, into a Float Array. These float values are passed as a Collection to this method. This method returns a Float array.
Syntax:
public static float[] toArray(Collection<? extends Number> collection)
Parameters: This method accepts a mandatory parameter collection which is the collection of float values to be converted in to a Float array.
Return Value: This method returns a float array containing the same values as a collection, in the same order.
Exceptions: This method throws NullPointerException if the passed collection or any of its elements is null.
Below programs illustrate the use of toArray() method:
Example 1 :
// Java code to show implementation of// Guava's Floats.toArray() method import com.google.common.primitives.Floats;import java.util.Arrays;import java.util.List; class GFG { // Driver's code public static void main(String[] args) { // Creating a List of Floats List<Float> myList = Arrays.asList(1.2f, 2.3f, 3.4f, 4.5f, 5.6f); // Using Floats.toArray() method to convert // a List or Set of Float to an array of Float float[] arr = Floats.toArray(myList); // Displaying an array containing each // value of collection, // converted to a float value System.out.println(Arrays.toString(arr)); }} |
