The length() method belongs to the concrete value members of the class AbstractIterator. It is defined in the class Iterator. It is also identical to the method size, it is also utilized to find the length of the stated collection.

Method Definition : final def length: Int

Return Type :It returns the length of the stated collection.

Example #1:




// Scala program of length()
// method
  
// Creating object
object GfG
  
    // Main method
    def main(args:Array[String])
    {
      
        // Declaring an iterator
        val iter = Iterator(2, 3, 5, 7, 11)
          
        // Applying length method
        val iter1 = iter.length
          
        // Displays output
        println(iter1)
  
    }
}


Output:

5

Here, the stated iterator is non-empty so, the length of the given collection is returned.
Example #2:




// Scala program of length()
// method
  
// Creating object
object GfG
  
    // Main method
    def main(args:Array[String])
    {
      
        // Declaring an iterator
        val iter = Iterator()
          
        // Applying length method
        val iter1 = iter.length
          
        // Displays output
        println(iter1)
  
    }
}


Output:

0

Here, the stated iterator is empty so, the length of the given collection is zero.
