Java Vector get() Method

The get() method of Java Vector class is used to get the element at the specified position in the vector.

Syntax

Following is the declaration of get() method:

Parameter

DataType	Parameter	Description	Required/Optional
int	index	It is an index of the element which will be returned.	Required

Return

The get() method returns the element at the specified index.

Exceptions

ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException- This method has thrown an exception if the index is out of range i.e. index < 0 || index >= size().

Compatibility Version

Java 1.2 and above

Example 1

import java.util.*;
public class VectorGetExample1 {  
	public static void main(String arg[]) {	
	    //Create an empty vector
	    Vector<Integer> vec = new Vector<>();
	    //Add element in the vector
	    vec.add(1);
	    vec.add(2);
	    vec.add(3);	    
	    vec.add(4);
	    vec.add(5);
	    //Get the element at specified index
	    System.out.println("Element at index 1 is = "+vec.get(1));
	    System.out.println("Element at index 3 is = "+vec.get(3));	
	    }            
}

Test it Now

Output:

Element at index 1 is = 2
Element at index 3 is = 4

Example 2

import java.util.*;
public class VectorGetExample2 {  
	public static void main(String arg[]) {	
	    //Create an empty vector
	    Vector < String > colors = new Vector < String > ();
	    //Add elements in the vector
          colors.add("White");
          colors.add("Green");
          colors.add("Black");
          colors.add("Pink");
          //Get the element at specified index
          System.out.println("Element at 0th position = " +colors.get(0));
          System.out.println("Element at 2nd position = " +colors.get(2));	
	    }            
}

Test it Now

Output:

Element at 0th position = White
Element at 2nd position = Black

Example 3

import java.util.*;
public class VectorGetExample3 {  
	public static void main(String arg[]) {	
	    //Create an empty vector
	    Vector<Integer> vecObject = new Vector<Integer>();
	    //Add element in the vector
	    vecObject.add(11);
	    vecObject.add(22);
	    vecObject.add(33);	    	    
	    //Get the element at specified index
	    System.out.println("Element at index 5 is = "+vecObject.get(5));    
	    }            
}

Test it Now

Output:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: Array index out of range: 5
	at java.base/java.util.Vector.get(Vector.java:780)
	at myPackage.VectorGetExample3.main(VectorGetExample3.java:12)
