Scala Iterator toSeq() method with example

The toSeq() method belongs to the concrete value member of the class Abstract Iterator. It is equivalent to the Seq method but this method is more faster.

Method Definition: val result = iter.toSeq

Return Type: It returns the stated collection as a sequence.

Example #1:

// Scala program of toSeq()
// method

// Creating object
object GfG
{

    // Main method
    def main(args:Array[String])
    {

        // Creating a Iterator
        val iter = Iterator(2, 5, 7, 8, 9)

        // Applying toSeq method
        val result = iter.toSeq

        // Displays output
        println(result)

    }
}

Output:

Stream(2, ?)

So, here a sequence is obtained.
Example #2:

// Scala program of toSeq()
// method

// Creating object
object GfG
{

    // Main method
    def main(args:Array[String])
    {

        // Creating an empty Iterator
        val iter = Iterator()

        // Applying toSeq method
        val result = iter.toSeq

        // Displays output
        println(result)

    }
}

Output:

Stream()

So, here an empty iterator is obtained as the stated iterator is empty.
