LinkedHashSet<E>

A LinkedHashSet is a hash-table based Set implementation.

The LinkedHashSet also keep track of the order that elements were inserted in, and iteration happens in first-to-last insertion order.

The elements of a LinkedHashSet must have consistent Object.operator== and Object.hashCode implementations. This means that the == operator must define a stable equivalence relation on the elements (reflexive, symmetric, transitive, and consistent over time), and that hashCode must be the same for objects that are considered equal by ==.

The set allows null as an element.

Iteration of elements is done in element insertion order. An element that was added after another will occur later in the iteration. Adding an element that is already in the set does not change its position in the iteration order, but removing an element and adding it again, will make it the last element of an iteration.

Most simple operations on HashSet are done in (potentially amortized) constant time: add, contains, remove, and length, provided the hash codes of objects are well distributed..

Implements

Properties

Iterator<E> iterator
read-only
Provides an iterator that iterates over the elements in insertion order.
bool isEmpty
read-only , inherited
Returns true if there are no elements in this collection.
bool isNotEmpty
read-only , inherited
Returns true if there is at least one element in this collection.
E first
read-only , inherited
Returns the first element.
E last
read-only , inherited
Returns the last element.
E single
read-only , inherited
Checks that this iterable has only one element, and returns that element.
int length
read-only , inherited
Returns the number of elements in [this].

Constructors

LinkedHashSet({bool equals(E e1, E e2), int hashCode(E e), bool isValidKey(potentialKey)})
Create an insertion-ordered hash set using the provided equals and hashCode.
LinkedHashSet.identity()
Creates an insertion-ordered identity-based set.
LinkedHashSet.from(Iterable<E> elements)
Create a linked hash set containing all elements.

Methods

forEach(void action(E element)) → void
Executes a function on each element of the set.
remove(Object value) → bool
inherited
Removes value from the set. Returns true if value was in the set. Returns false otherwise. The method has no effect if value value was not in the set.
clear() → void
inherited
Removes all elements in the set.
take(int n) → Iterable<E>
inherited
Returns a lazy iterable of the count first elements of this iterable.
map(dynamic f(E element)) → Iterable
inherited
Returns a new lazy Iterable with elements that are created by calling f on each element of this Iterable in iteration order.
intersection(Set<Object> other) → Set<E>
inherited
Returns a new set which is the intersection between this set and other.
takeWhile(bool test(E value)) → Iterable<E>
inherited
Returns a lazy iterable of the leading elements satisfying test.
fold(initialValue, dynamic combine(previousValue, E element)) → dynamic
inherited
Reduces a collection to a single value by iteratively combining each element of the collection with an existing value
toSet() → Set<E>
inherited
Creates a [Set] containing the same elements as this iterable.
firstWhere(bool test(E element), {E orElse()}) → E
inherited
Returns the first element that satisfies the given predicate test.
difference(Set<E> other) → Set<E>
inherited
Returns a new set with the the elements of this that are not in other.
skipWhile(bool test(E value)) → Iterable<E>
inherited
Returns an Iterable that skips leading elements while test is satisfied.
join([String separator = ""]) → String
inherited
Converts each element to a String and concatenates the strings.
contains(Object value) → bool
inherited
Returns true if value is in the set.
union(Set<E> other) → Set<E>
inherited
Returns a new set which contains all the elements of this set and other.
removeAll(Iterable<Object> elements) → void
inherited
Removes each element of elements from this set.
add(E value) → bool
inherited
Adds value into the set. Returns true if value was added to the set.
lastWhere(bool test(E element), {E orElse()}) → E
inherited
Returns the last element that satisfies the given predicate test.
singleWhere(bool test(E element)) → E
inherited
Returns the single element that satisfies test.
addAll(Iterable<E> elements) → void
inherited
Adds all elements to this Set.
reduce(E combine(E value, E element)) → E
inherited
Reduces a collection to a single value by iteratively combining elements of the collection using the provided function.
containsAll(Iterable<Object> other) → bool
inherited
Returns whether this Set contains all the elements of other.
removeWhere(bool test(E element)) → void
inherited
Removes all elements of this set that satisfy test.
any(bool f(E element)) → bool
inherited
Checks whether any element of this iterable satisfies test.
every(bool f(E element)) → bool
inherited
Checks whether every element of this iterable satisfies test.
toList({bool growable: true}) → List<E>
inherited
Creates a List containing the elements of this Iterable.
where(bool f(E element)) → Iterable<E>
inherited
Returns a new lazy Iterable with all elements that satisfy the predicate test.
lookup(Object object) → E
inherited
If an object equal to object is in the set, return it.
skip(int n) → Iterable<E>
inherited
Returns an Iterable that provides all but the first count elements.
expand(Iterable f(E element)) → Iterable
inherited
Expands each element of this Iterableinto zero or more elements.
retainAll(Iterable<Object> elements) → void
inherited
Removes all elements of this set that are not elements in elements.
retainWhere(bool test(E element)) → void
inherited
Removes all elements of this set that fail to satisfy test.
elementAt(int index) → E
inherited
Returns the indexth element.
