ConcurrentLinkedQueue size() method in Java

The size() method of ConcurrentLinkedQueue is used to returns number of elements that this ConcurrentLinkedQueue contains.

Syntax:

public int size()

Returns: This method number of elements in this ConcurrentLinkedQueue.

Below programs illustrate size() method of ConcurrentLinkedQueue:

Example 1:

// Java Program Demonstrate size()
// method of ConcurrentLinkedQueue

import java.util.concurrent.*;

public class GFG {
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {

        // create an ConcurrentLinkedQueue
        ConcurrentLinkedQueue<Integer>
            queue = new ConcurrentLinkedQueue<Integer>();

        // Add Numbers to queue
        queue.add(4353);
        queue.add(7824);
        queue.add(78249);
        queue.add(8724);

        // Displaying the existing ConcurrentLinkedQueue
        System.out.println("ConcurrentLinkedQueue: " + queue);

        // apply size()
        int size = queue.size();

        // print after applying size method
        System.out.println("Size of ConcurrentLinkedQueue: " + size);
    }
}

Output:

ConcurrentLinkedQueue: [4353, 7824, 78249, 8724]
Size of ConcurrentLinkedQueue: 4

Example 2:

// Java Program Demonstrate size()
// method of ConcurrentLinkedQueue

import java.util.concurrent.*;

public class GFG {
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {

        // create an ConcurrentLinkedQueue
        ConcurrentLinkedQueue<String>
            queue = new ConcurrentLinkedQueue<String>();

        // Add String to queue
        queue.add("Aman");
        queue.add("Amar");
        queue.add("Sanjeet");
        queue.add("Rabi");

        // Displaying the existing ConcurrentLinkedQueue
        System.out.println("ConcurrentLinkedQueue: " + queue);

        // apply size() on queue
        int size = queue.size();

        // print after applying size method
        System.out.println("Size of ConcurrentLinkedQueue: "
                           + size);

        // removal of some elements
        queue.poll();
        queue.poll();

        // get size of ConcurrentLinkedQueue again
        size = queue.size();

        // Displaying the existing ConcurrentLinkedQueue
        System.out.println("After 2 removal of elements\n"
                           + "ConcurrentLinkedQueue: " + queue);

        // print after applying size method
        System.out.println("Size of ConcurrentLinkedQueue: "
                           + size);
    }
}

Output:

ConcurrentLinkedQueue: [Aman, Amar, Sanjeet, Rabi]
Size of ConcurrentLinkedQueue: 4

After 2 removal of elements

ConcurrentLinkedQueue: [Sanjeet, Rabi]
Size of ConcurrentLinkedQueue: 2
