The remove(Object O) method of SortedSet interface is used to remove a particular element from this SortedSet.
Syntax:
boolean remove(Object O)
Parameters: The parameter O is of the type of element maintained by this SortedSet and specifies the element to be removed from the Set.
Return Value: This method returns True if the specified element is present in the Set otherwise it returns False.
Note: The remove() method in SortedSet is inherited from the Set interface in Java.
Below program illustrate the java.util.SortedSet.remove(Object O) method:
Java
// Java code to illustrate // SortedSet.remove() method import java.util.*; public class SortedSetDemo { public static void main(String args[]) { // Creating an empty Set SortedSet<String> set = new TreeSet<String>(); // Use add() method to // add elements into the Set set.add( "Welcome" ); set.add( "To" ); set.add( "Geeks" ); set.add( "4" ); set.add( "Geeks" ); // Displaying the Set System.out.println( "SortedSet: " + set); // Removing elements // using remove() method set.remove( "Geeks" ); set.remove( "4" ); set.remove( "Welcome" ); // Displaying the Set after removal System.out.println( "SortedSet after " + "removing elements: " + set); } } |
SortedSet: [4, Geeks, To, Welcome] SortedSet after removing elements: [To]
