The Java TreeSet pollFirst() method is used to retrieve and remove the first (lowest) element, or returns null if this set is empty.
DeclarationFollowing is the declaration for java.util.TreeSet.pollFirst() method.
public E pollFirst()Parameters
NA
Return ValueThe method call returns the first element, or null if this set is empty.
ExceptionNA
Getting First Element of a TreeSet of Integer ExampleThe following example shows the usage of Java TreeSet pollFirst() method to retrieve and remove the first (lowest) element from the treeset. We've created a TreeSet object of Integer. Then few entries are added using add() method and related value is printed using pollFirst() method.
package com.tutorialspoint; import java.util.TreeSet; public class TreeSetDemo { public static void main(String[] args) { // creating a TreeSet TreeSet <Integer>treeset = new TreeSet<>(); // adding in the tree set treeset.add(1); treeset.add(13); treeset.add(17); treeset.add(2); // retrieve and remove the first element System.out.println("First element is: "+treeset.pollFirst()); // displaying the Tree set data System.out.print("Tree set data after removing: " + treeset); } }Output
Let us compile and run the above program, this will produce the following result.
First element is: 1 Tree set data after removing: [2, 13, 17]Getting First Element of a TreeSet of String Example
The following example shows the usage of Java TreeSet pollFirst() method to retrieve and remove the first (lowest) element from the treeset. We've created a TreeSet object of String. Then few entries are added using add() method and related value is printed using pollFirst() method.
package com.tutorialspoint; import java.util.TreeSet; public class TreeSetDemo { public static void main(String[] args) { // creating a TreeSet TreeSet <String>treeset = new TreeSet<>(); // adding in the tree set treeset.add("B"); treeset.add("D"); treeset.add("A"); treeset.add("C"); // retrieve and remove the first element System.out.println("First element is: "+treeset.pollFirst()); // displaying the Tree set data System.out.print("Tree set data after removing: " + treeset); } }Output
Let us compile and run the above program, this will produce the following result.
First element is: A Tree set data after removing: [B, C, D]Getting First Element of a TreeSet of Object Example
The following example shows the usage of Java TreeSet pollFirst() method to retrieve and remove the first (lowest) element from the treeset. We've created a TreeSet object of Student. Then few entries are added using add() method and related value is printed using pollFirst() method.
package com.tutorialspoint; import java.util.TreeSet; public class TreeSetDemo { public static void main(String[] args) { // creating a TreeSet TreeSet <Student>treeset = new TreeSet<>(); // adding in the tree set treeset.add(new Student(2, "Julie")); treeset.add(new Student(1, "Robert")); treeset.add(new Student(3, "Adam")); treeset.add(new Student(4, "Julia")); // retrieve and remove the first element System.out.println("First element is: "+treeset.pollFirst()); // displaying the Tree set data System.out.print("Tree set data after removing: " + treeset); } } class Student implements Comparable<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); } @Override public int compareTo(Student student) { return this.rollNo - student.rollNo; } }Output
Let us compile and run the above program, this will produce the following result.
First element is: [ 1, Robert ] Tree set data after removing: [[ 2, Julie ], [ 3, Adam ], [ 4, Julia ]]
