Scala - Create a Sorted Set

Here, we will create a set of integer numbers using SortedSet collection class. Then we will print elements of the sorted array on the console screen.

Scala code to create a sorted set

The source code to create a sorted set is given below. The given program is compiled and executed on the ubuntu 18.04 operating system successfully.

// Scala program to create a sorted set

import scala.collection.immutable._

object Sample {
  // Main method
  def main(args: Array[String]) {
    var nums: SortedSet[Int] = SortedSet(87, 70, 60, 30, 20, 50, 40, 10);

    println("Elements of sorted set:");
    nums.foreach((item: Int) => printf("%d ", item));
    
    println();
  }
}

Output

Elements of sorted set:
10 20 30 40 50 60 70 87 

Explanation

Here, we used an object-oriented approach to create the program. And, we imported Collection classes using below statement,

import scala.collection.immutable._

Here, we also created a singleton object Sample and defined the main() function. The main() function is the entry point for the program.

In the main() function, we created a set nums using the SortedSet collection. Then we printed the elements of the sorted set on the console screen.
