Scala immutable TreeSet --() method

Last Updated : 19 Apr, 2020
In Scala immutable TreeSet class, the --() method is utilised to subtract elements of one TreeSet to another TreeSet.
Method Definition: def --(that: IterableOnce[A]): TreeSet[A] Return Type: It returns a new TreeSet which contains the element from A - B TreeSets.
Example #1: Scala
// Scala program of --() 
// method 

// Import TreeSet
import scala.collection.immutable._

// Creating object 
object GfG 
{ 

    // Main method 
    def main(args:Array[String]) 
    { 
    
        // Creating TreeSets
        val t1 = TreeSet("g", "e", "e", "k", "s") 
        
        val t2 = TreeSet("a", "e", "i", "o", "u")
        
        // Print the TreeSets
        println(t1) 
        
        println(t2)
        
        // Applying --() method  
        val result = t1 -- t2
        
        // Display output 
        print("Combined TreeSet: " + result) 
         
    } 
} 
Output:
TreeSet(e, g, k, s)
TreeSet(a, e, i, o, u)
Combined TreeSet: TreeSet(g, k, s)
Example #2: Scala
// Scala program of --() 
// method 

// Import TreeSet
import scala.collection.immutable._

// Creating object 
object GfG 
{ 

    // Main method 
    def main(args:Array[String]) 
    { 
    
        // Creating TreeSets
        val t1 = TreeSet(1, 6, 3, 2, 5) 
        
        val t2 = TreeSet(2, 1, 5, 4, 1)
        
        // Print the TreeSets
        println(t1) 
        
        println(t2)
        
        // Applying --() method  
        val result = t1 -- t2
        
        // Display output 
        print("Combined TreeSet: " + result) 
         
    } 
} 
Output:
TreeSet(1, 2, 3, 5, 6)
TreeSet(1, 2, 4, 5)
Combined TreeSet: TreeSet(3, 6)
