// method 
  
// Creating object 
object GfG 
  
    // Main method 
    def main(args:Array[String]) 
    
      
        // Creating a list

        // Print the set
        println(s1)
          
        // Applying dropWhile method 
        var res = s1.dropWhile(x => {x % 2 != 0}) 
          
        // Displays output 
        println(res)
