This method is same as addString() method but here a start, a separator and an end is also included.
Method Definition: def addString(sb: mutable.StringBuilder, start: String, sep: String, end: String): mutable.StringBuilder
Where, sep is the separator stated.
Return Type: It returns the elements of the SortedMap in the String Builder and a start, a separator and an end is also included here.
Example #1:
// Scala program of addString() method // with a start, a separator and an // end import scala.collection.immutable.SortedMap
// Creating object object GfG
{ // Main method
def main(args : Array[String])
{
// Creating SortedMap
val m 1 = SortedMap( "geeks" - > 5 , "for" - > 3 , "cs" - > 3 )
// Applying addString method
val result = m 1 .addString( new StringBuilder(), ">>>" , "|" , "--" )
// Displays output
println(result)
}
} |
Output:
>>>cs -> 3|for -> 3|geeks -> 5--
Example #2:
// Scala program of addString() method // with a start, a separator and an // end import scala.collection.immutable.SortedMap
// Creating object object GfG
{ // Main method
def main(args : Array[String])
{
// Creating SortedMap
val m 1 = SortedMap( "geeks" - > 5 , "for" - > 3 , "for" - > 3 )
// Applying addString method
val result = m 1 .addString( new StringBuilder(), ">>>" , "|" , "--" )
// Displays output
println(result)
}
} |
Output:
>>>for -> 3|geeks -> 5--
So, here the identical keys are removed.
