Scala Mutable SortedMap take() method with example

The take() method is utilized to select the first ‘n’ elements of the SortedMap.

Method Definition: def take(n: Int): SortedMap[A, B]

Return Type: It returns the first ‘n’ elements of the SortedMap.

Example #1:

// Scala program of take()
// method
import scala.collection.SortedMap

// Creating object
object GfG
{

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

        // Creating a SortedMap
        val m1 = SortedMap(3 -> "geeks", 4 -> "for", 2 -> "cs")

        // Applying take method
        val result = m1.take(2)

        // Displays output
        println(result)

    }
}

Output:

Map(2 -> cs, 3 -> geeks)

Example #2:

// Scala program of take()
// method
import scala.collection.SortedMap

// Creating object
object GfG
{

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

        // Creating a SortedMap
        val m1 = SortedMap(3 -> "geeks", 4 -> "for", 2 -> "cs")

        // Applying take method
        val result = m1.take(4)

        // Displays output
        println(result)

    }
}

Output:

Map(2 -> cs, 3 -> geeks, 4 -> for)
