Java List spliterator() Method

The spliterator() method of List Interface creates a Spliterator over the elements in the given list.

Syntax

Parameters

Specified by

spliterator() in interface Collection<E>
spliterator() in interface Iterable<E>

Returns:

The spliterator() method returns a Spliterator over the elements in this list.

Example 1

import java.util.LinkedList;
import java.util.List;
import java.util.Spliterator;
public class JavaListSpliteratorExample1 {
public static void main(String[] args) {
        List<Integer> list = new LinkedList<>();
for (int i=1;i<=10;i++) {
list.add(i);
        }
System.out.print("Values : ");
//spliterator  split and then iterate the split parts in parallel
Spliterator<Integer>str = list.spliterator();
// if the specified element exists then the tryAdvance() will perform the given action
while(str.tryAdvance((n)->System.out.print(n+" ")));
    }
}

Output:

Values : 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

Example 2

import java.util.LinkedList;
import java.util.List;
import java.util.Spliterator;
class Student{
    String name;
    String school;
    String course;
    Student(String name, String school, String course){
this.name=name;
this.school=school;
this.course=course;
    }
public String toString() {
return  " Name : "+this.name+"     School : "+this.school+"     Course : "+this.course;
    }
}
public class JavaListSpliteratorExample2 {
public static void main(String[] args) {
        List<Student> list = new LinkedList<>();
        Student s1= new Student("Reema","Gita Convent School","Java");
        Student s2= new Student("Geetu","Gita Convent School","Android");
        Student s3= new Student("Saloni","Eicher Public School","Java");
list.add(s1);
list.add(s2);
list.add(s3);
//spliterator  split and then iterate the split parts in parallel
Spliterator<Student>str = list.spliterator();
// if the specified element exists then the tryAdvance() will perform the given action
while(str.tryAdvance((n)->System.out.println(n)));
    }
}
