The equals() method is utilized to check whether the two sets have the same elements or not.
Method Definition: def equals(that: Any): Boolean
Return Type: It returns true if the elements of both the sets are same else it returns false.
Example #1:
// Scala program of equals() // method // Creating object object GfG
{ // Main method
def main(args : Array[String])
{
// Creating sets
val s 1 = Set( "geeks" , "for" , "cs" )
val s 2 = Set( "cs" , "for" , "geeks" )
// Applying equals method
val result = s 1 .equals(s 2 )
// Displays output
println(result)
}
} |
Output:
true
Example #2:
// Scala program of equals() // method // Creating object object GfG
{ // Main method
def main(args : Array[String])
{
// Creating sets
val s 1 = Set( 11 , 10 , 2019 )
val s 2 = Set( 9 , 10 , 2018 )
// Applying equals method
val result = s 1 .equals(s 2 )
// Displays output
println(result)
}
} |
Output:
false
