The java.util.SortedSet.isEmpty() method is used to check if a SortedSet is empty or not. It returns True if the SortedSet is empty otherwise it returns False.

Syntax:

boolean isEmpty()

Parameters: This method does not take any parameter.

Return Value: The method returns True if the SortedSet is empty else returns False.

Note: The isEmpty() method in SortedSet is inherited from the Set interface in Java.

Below program illustrate the java.util.SortedSet.isEmpty() method:




// Java code to illustrate isEmpty()
  
import java.io.*;
import java.util.*;
  
public class SortedSetDemo {
    public static void main(String args[])
    {
        // Creating an empty Set
        SortedSet<String> set
            = new TreeSet<String>();
  
        // Use add() method to
        // add elements into the Set
        set.add("Welcome");
        set.add("To");
        set.add("Geeks");
        set.add("4");
        set.add("Geeks");
  
        // Displaying the Set
        System.out.println("Set: " + set);
  
        // Check for the empty set
        System.out.println("Is the set empty? "
                           + set.isEmpty());
  
        // Clearing the set using clear() method
        set.clear();
  
        // Again Checking for the empty set
        System.out.println("Is the set empty? "
                           + set.isEmpty());
    }
}


Output:

Set: [4, Geeks, To, Welcome]
Is the set empty? false
Is the set empty? true
