In Scala, scala.collection.mutable implements Stack data structure. The ++: method is similar to ++ method in Stack which gives a new stack with elements from the left hand operand followed by the elements from the right hand operand. But with the difference that in ++:() right operand determines the type of the resulting collection rather than the left one.

Method Definition – def ++:[B >: A, That](that: collection.Traversable[B])

Returns – A new stack which contains all elements of this stack followed by all elements of traversable.

Example #1:




// Scala program of mutable stack ++:() method 
  
// Import Stack 
import scala.collection.mutable._
  
// Creating object 
object GfG 
  
    // Main method 
    def main(args:Array[String]) 
    
        // Creating a stack 
        val q1 = Stack(1, 2, 3, 4, 5
          
        val q2 = Stack(11, 12, 13, 14, 15
          
        // Applying ++() method 
        val result = q1.++:(q2
              
        // Display output 
        print(result) 
          
    


Output:

Stack(11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5)

Example #2:




// Scala program of mutable stack ++() 
// method 
  
// Import Stack 
import scala.collection.mutable._
  
// Creating object 
object GfG 
  
    // Main method 
    def main(args:Array[String]) 
    
        // Creating a stack 
        val q1 = List(1, 2, 3)
          
        val q2 = Stack("for", "geeks"
          
        // Applying ++() method 
        val result = q1 ++: q2
              
        // Display output 
        print(result) 
          
    


Output:

Stack(1, 2, 3, for, geeks)
