Scala Mutable SortedMap find() method with example

Last Updated : 4 May, 2020
The find() method is utilized to find the first element of the SortedMap that satisfies the given predicate.
Method Definition: def find(p: ((A, B)) => Boolean): Option[(A, B)] Return Type: It returns the first element of the SortedMap which satisfies the given predicate.
Example #1: Scala 
// Scala program of find()
// method
import scala.collection.SortedMap

// Creating object
object GfG
{ 

    // Main method
    def main(args:Array[String])
    {
    
        // Creating SortedMap
        val m1 = SortedMap(3 -> "geeks", 1 -> "for", 2 -> "cs")
        
        // Applying find method
        val result = m1.find(_._2 == "for")
        
        // Displays output
        println(result)
    
    }
}
Output: 
Some((1, for))
So, here the second pair which is the first pair that satisfies the given predicate so, the second pair is returned. Example #2: Scala 
// Scala program of find()
// method
import scala.collection.SortedMap

// Creating object
object GfG
{ 

    // Main method
    def main(args:Array[String])
    {
    
        // Creating SortedMap
        val m1 = SortedMap(3 -> "geeks", 1 -> "for", 2 -> "cs", 6 -> "geeks")
        
        // Applying find method
        val result = m1.find(_._2 == "geeks")
        
        // Displays output
        println(result)
    
    }
}
Output: 
Some((3, geeks))
