Collection

interface Collection<out E> : Iterable<E>

A generic collection of elements. Methods in this interface support only read-only access to the collection; read/write access is supported through the MutableCollection interface.

Parameters

the type of elements contained in the collection. The collection is covariant in its element type.

Functions

contains

abstract operator fun contains(element: @UnsafeVariance E): Boolean

Checks if the specified element is contained in this collection.

containsAll

abstract fun containsAll(elements: Collection<@UnsafeVariance E>): Boolean

Checks if all elements in the specified collection are contained in this collection.

isEmpty

abstract fun isEmpty(): Boolean

Returns true if the collection is empty (contains no elements), false otherwise.

iterator

abstract operator override fun iterator(): Iterator<E>

Returns an iterator over the elements of this object.

Properties

size

abstract val size: Int

Returns the size of the collection.

isNotEmpty

inline fun <T> Collection<T>.isNotEmpty(): Boolean

Returns true if the collection is not empty.

isNullOrEmpty

inline fun <T> Collection<T>?.isNullOrEmpty(): Boolean

Returns true if this nullable collection is either null or empty.

orEmpty

inline fun <T> Collection<T>?.orEmpty(): Collection<T>

Returns this Collection if it's not null and the empty list otherwise.

plus

operator fun <T> Collection<T>.plus(element: T): List<T>

Returns a list containing all elements of the original collection and then the given element.

operator fun <T> Collection<T>.plus(elements: Array<out T>): List<T>

Returns a list containing all elements of the original collection and then all elements of the given elements array.

operator fun <T> Collection<T>.plus(elements: Iterable<T>): List<T>

Returns a list containing all elements of the original collection and then all elements of the given elements collection.

Returns a list containing all elements of the original collection and then all elements of the given elements sequence.

plusElement

inline fun <T> Collection<T>.plusElement(element: T): List<T>

Returns a list containing all elements of the original collection and then the given element.

random

inline fun <T> Collection<T>.random(): T
