Java ArrayList.spliterator() – Syntax & Examples

Java ArrayList.spliterator() – Examples

In this tutorial, we will learn about the Java ArrayList.spliterator() method, and learn how to use this method to get Spliterator for the elements in this ArrayList, with the help of examples.

spliterator()

ArrayList.spliterator() creates a late-binding and fail-fast Spliterator over the elements in this list.

Syntax

The syntax of spliterator() method is

ArrayList.spliterator()

Returns

The method returns Spliterator<E> object.

Example 1 – spliterator()

In this example, we will take an ArrayList of strings and get Spliterator over the elements in this ArrayList using ArrayList.spliterator() method.

Java Program

import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.Spliterator;

public class Example {
  public static void main(String[] args) {
	  ArrayList<String> arrayList = new ArrayList<String>();  
	  arrayList.add("a");  
	  arrayList.add("b");  
	  arrayList.add("c"); 
	  arrayList.add("d");
	  arrayList.add("e");
	  
      Spliterator<String> spliterator = arrayList.spliterator();
      spliterator.forEachRemaining((str) -> System.out.println(str));
  }
}

Output

a
b
c
d
e

Conclusion

In this Java Tutorial, we have learnt the syntax of Java ArrayList.spliterator() method, and also learnt how to use this method with the help of Java example programs.
