Listing the Elements of a Collection

This example demonstrates how to iterate over the elements of various types of collections.
// For a set or list for (Iterator it=collection.iterator(); it.hasNext(); ) { Object element = it.next(); } // For keys of a map for (Iterator it=map.keySet().iterator(); it.hasNext(); ) { Object key = it.next(); } // For values of a map for (Iterator it=map.values().iterator(); it.hasNext(); ) { Object value = it.next(); } // For both the keys and values of a map for (Iterator it=map.entrySet().iterator(); it.hasNext(); ) { Map.Entry entry = (Map.Entry)it.next(); Object key = entry.getKey(); Object value = entry.getValue(); }
