The containsAll() method of Java LinkedHashSet is used to check whether two sets contain the same elements or not. It takes one set as a parameter and returns True if all of the elements of this set is present in the other set.
Syntax:
public boolean containsAll(Collection C)
Parameters: The parameter C is a Collection. This parameter refers to the set whose elements occurrence is needed to be checked in this set.
Return Value: The method returns True if this set contains all the elements of other set otherwise it returns False.
Below programs illustrate the LinkedHashSet.containsAll() method:
Program 1:
// Java code to illustrate // LinkedHashSet containsAll() import java.util.*;
class LinkedHashSetDemo {
public static void main(String args[])
{
// Creating an empty set
LinkedHashSet<String>
set = new LinkedHashSet<String>();
// Use add() method to
// add elements in the set
set.add( "Geeks" );
set.add( "for" );
set.add( "Geeks" );
set.add( "10" );
set.add( "20" );
// prints the set
System.out.println( "LinkedHashSet 1: "
+ set);
// Creating another empty set
LinkedHashSet<String>
set2 = new LinkedHashSet<String>();
// Use add() method to
// add elements in the set
set2.add( "Geeks" );
set2.add( "for" );
set2.add( "Geeks" );
set2.add( "10" );
set2.add( "20" );
// prints the set
System.out.println( "LinkedHashSet 2: "
+ set2);
// Check if the set
// contains same elements
System.out.println( "\nDoes set 1 contains set 2: "
+ set.containsAll(set2));
}

LinkedHashSet 1: [Geeks, for, 10, 20] LinkedHashSet 2: [Geeks, for, 10, 20] Does set 1 contains set 2: true
Program 2:
// Java code to illustrate boolean containsAll() import java.util.*;
class LinkedHashSetDemo {
public static void main(String args[])
{
// Creating an empty set
LinkedHashSet<String>
set = new LinkedHashSet<String>();
// Use add() method to
// add elements in the set
set.add( "Geeks" );
set.add( "for" );
set.add( "Geeks" );
// prints the set
System.out.println( "LinkedHashSet 1: "
+ set);
// Creating another empty set
LinkedHashSet<String>
set2 = new LinkedHashSet<String>();
// Use add() method to
// add elements in the set
set2.add( "10" );
set2.add( "20" );
// prints the set
System.out.println( "LinkedHashSet 2: "
+ set2);
// Check if the set
// contains same elements
System.out.println( "\nDoes set 1 contains set 2: "
+ set.containsAll(set2));
}
