The Java Collections singleton(T) method is used to return an immutable set containing only the specified object.
DeclarationFollowing is the declaration for java.util.Collections.singleton() method.
public static <T> Set<T> singleton(T o)Parameters
o − This is the sole object to be stored in the returned set.
Return ValueThe method call returns an immutable set containing only the specified object.

Getting a Singleton Set of Integer ExampleThe following example shows the usage of Java Collection singleton(T) method. We've created a List object with some integers, printed the original list. Using singleton(T) method, we've removed elements of the list of given value and then printed the updated list.
package com.tutorialspoint; import java.util.ArrayList; import java.util.Arrays; import java.util.Collections; import java.util.List; public class CollectionsDemo { public static void main(String[] args) { List<Integer> list = new ArrayList<>(Arrays.asList(1,2,3,4,5)); System.out.println("Initial collection value: " + list); // remove 2 from this collection list.removeAll(Collections.singleton(2)); System.out.println("Final collection value: "+list); } }Output
Let us compile and run the above program, this will produce the following result −
Initial collection value: [1, 2, 3, 4, 5] Final collection value: [1, 3, 4, 5]Getting a Singleton Set of String Example
The following example shows the usage of Java Collection singleton(T) method. We've created a List object with some strings, printed the original list. Using singleton(T) method, we've removed elements of the list of given value and then printed the updated list.
package com.tutorialspoint; import java.util.ArrayList; import java.util.Arrays; import java.util.Collections; import java.util.List; public class CollectionsDemo { public static void main(String[] args) { List<String> list = new ArrayList<>(Arrays.asList("Welcome","to","Tutorialspoint")); System.out.println("Initial collection value: " + list); // remove "to" from this collection list.removeAll(Collections.singleton("to")); System.out.println("Final collection value: "+list); } }Output
Let us compile and run the above program, this will produce the following result −
Initial collection value: [Welcome, to, Tutorialspoint] Final collection value: [Welcome, Tutorialspoint]Getting a Singleton Set of Object Example
The following example shows the usage of Java Collection singleton(T) method. We've created a List object with some Student objects, printed the original list. Using singleton(T) method, we've removed elements of the list of given value and then printed the updated list.
package com.tutorialspoint; import java.util.ArrayList; import java.util.Arrays; import java.util.Collections; import java.util.List; public class CollectionsDemo { public static void main(String[] args) { List<Student> list = new ArrayList<>(Arrays.asList(new Student(1, "Julie"), new Student(2, "Robert"), new Student(3, "Adam"))); System.out.println("Initial collection value: " + list); // remove Robert from this collection list.removeAll(Collections.singleton(new Student(2, "Robert"))); System.out.println("Final collection value: "+list); } } class Student { int rollNo; String name; Student(int rollNo, String name){ this.rollNo = rollNo; this.name = name; } @Override public String toString() { return "[ " + this.rollNo + ", " + this.name + " ]"; } @Override public boolean equals(Object obj) { Student s = (Student)obj; return this.rollNo == s.rollNo && this.name.equalsIgnoreCase(s.name); } }Output
Let us compile and run the above program, this will produce the following result −
Initial collection value: [[ 1, Julie ], [ 2, Robert ], [ 3, Adam ]] Final collection value: [[ 1, Julie ], [ 3, Adam ]]
