Example:
In the example below, the java.util.Collections.emptyNavigableSet() method is used to create an empty navigable set.
import java.util.*;
public class MyClass {
public static void main(String[] args) {
//creating an empty NavigableSet
NavigableSet<Integer> MySet = Collections.emptyNavigableSet();
//print the content of the set
System.out.println("MySet contains: " + MySet);
//populating the set
//as the set is immutable,
//the exception is thrown
MySet.add(10);
MySet.add(20);
MySet.add(30);
MySet.add(40);
MySet.add(50);
//print the content of the set
System.out.println("MySet contains: " + MySet);
}
}
The output of the above code will be:
