NavigableSet
In this chapter you will learn:
Use NavigableSet
TreeSet is an example of a navigable set.
Navigable sets are described by the NavigableSet interface, whose generic type is
NavigableSet<E>, which extends SortedSet.
The following code demonstrates a navigable set based on a tree set.
import java.util.Iterator;
import java.util.NavigableSet;
import java.util.TreeSet;
//j ava 2 s. c o m
public class Main {
public static void main(String[] args) {
NavigableSet<Integer> ns = new TreeSet<Integer>();
int[] ints = { 8, -1, 4, 0, 1, -6, 9 };
for (int i : ints)
ns.add(i);
System.out.print("Ascending order: ");
Iterator iter = ns.iterator();
while (iter.hasNext()){
System.out.print(iter.next() + " ");
}
System.out.println();
System.out.print("Descending order: ");
iter = ns.descendingIterator();
while (iter.hasNext()){
System.out.print(iter.next() + " ");
}
System.out.println("\n");
outputClosestMatches(ns, 4);
outputClosestMatches(ns.descendingSet(), 12);
}
static void outputClosestMatches(NavigableSet<Integer> ns, int i) {
System.out.println("Element < " + i + " is " + ns.lower(i));
System.out.println("Element <= " + i + " is " + ns.floor(i));
System.out.println("Element > " + i + " is " + ns.higher(i));
System.out.println("Element >= " + i + " is " + ns.ceiling(i));
System.out.println();
}
}
