SortedSet last() method in Java

The last() method of SortedSet interface in Java is used to return the last i.e., the highest element currently in this set.
Syntax: 

E last()

Where, E is the type of element maintained by this Set.
Parameters: This function does not accepts any parameter.
Return Value: It returns the last or the highest element currently in the set.
Exceptions: It throws NoSuchElementException, if the set is empty.
Below programs illustrate the above method:
Program 1: 

Java

// A Java program to demonstrate
// working of SortedSet
import java.util.SortedSet;
import java.util.TreeSet;

public class Main {
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
        // Create a TreeSet and inserting elements
        SortedSet<Integer> s = new TreeSet<>();

        // Adding Element to SortedSet
        s.add(1);
        s.add(5);
        s.add(2);
        s.add(3);
        s.add(9);

        // Returning the lowest element from set
        System.out.print("Greatest element in set is : "
                         + s.last());
    }
}

Output:

Greatest element in set is : 9

Program 2: 

Java

// Program to illustrate the last()
// method of SortedSet interface

import java.util.SortedSet;
import java.util.TreeSet;

public class GFG {
    public static void main(String args[])
    {
        // Create an empty SortedSet
        SortedSet<Integer> s = new TreeSet<>();

        // Trying to access element from
        // empty set
        try {
            s.last();
        }
        catch (Exception e) {
            // throws NoSuchElementException
            System.out.println("Exception: " + e);
        }
    }
}

Output:

Exception: java.util.NoSuchElementException
