Method Detail

create

public static <E> HashMultiset<E> create()
Creates a new, empty HashMultiset using the default initial capacity.


create

public static <E> HashMultiset<E> create(int distinctElements)
Creates a new, empty HashMultiset with the specified expected number of distinct elements.

Parameters:
distinctElements - the expected number of distinct elements
Throws:
IllegalArgumentException - if distinctElements is negative

create

public static <E> HashMultiset<E> create(Iterable<? extends E> elements)
Creates a new HashMultiset containing the specified elements.

Parameters:
elements - the elements that the multiset should contain

entrySet

public Set<Multiset.Entry<E>> entrySet()
Returns a view of the contents of this multiset, grouped into Multiset.Entry instances, each providing an element of the multiset and the count of that element. This set contains exactly one entry for each distinct element in the multiset (thus it always has the same size as the Multiset.elementSet()). The order of the elements in the element set is unspecified.

The entry set is backed by the same data as the multiset, so any change to either is immediately reflected in the other. However, multiset changes may or may not be reflected in any Entry instances already retrieved from the entry set (this is implementation-dependent). Furthermore, implementations are not required to support modifications to the entry set at all, and the Entry instances themselves don't even have methods for modification. See the specific implementation class for more details on how its entry set handles modifications.

Invoking Multiset.Entry.getCount() on an entry in the returned set always returns the current count of that element in the multiset, as opposed to the count at the time the entry was retrieved.

Specified by:
entrySet in interface Multiset<E>
Returns:
a set of entries representing the data of this multiset

size

public int size()
Description copied from interface: java.util.Collection
Returns the number of elements in this collection. If this collection contains more than Integer.MAX_VALUE elements, returns Integer.MAX_VALUE.

Specified by:
size in interface Collection<E>
Returns:
the number of elements in this collection

iterator

public Iterator<E> iterator()
Description copied from class: java.util.AbstractCollection
Returns an iterator over the elements contained in this collection.

Specified by:
iterator in interface Multiset<E>
Specified by:
iterator in interface Iterable<E>
Specified by:
iterator in interface Collection<E>
Returns:
an iterator over the elements contained in this collection

contains

public boolean contains(@Nullable
                        Object element)
Description copied from class: java.util.AbstractCollection
Returns true if this collection contains the specified element. More formally, returns true if and only if this collection contains at least one element e such that (o==null ? e==null : o.equals(e)).

This implementation iterates over the elements in the collection, checking each element in turn for equality with the specified element.

Specified by:
contains in interface Multiset<E>
Specified by:
contains in interface Collection<E>
Parameters:
element - element whose presence in this collection is to be tested
Returns:
true if this collection contains the specified element

count

public int count(@Nullable
                 Object element)
Description copied from interface: Multiset
Returns the number of occurrences of an element in this multiset (the count of the element). Note that for an Object.equals(java.lang.Object)-based multiset, this gives the same result as Collections.frequency(java.util.Collection, java.lang.Object) (which would presumably perform more poorly).

Note: the utility method Iterables.frequency(java.lang.Iterable, java.lang.Object) generalizes this operation; it correctly delegates to this method when dealing with a multiset, but it can also accept any other iterable type.

Specified by:
count in interface Multiset<E>
Parameters:
element - the element to count occurrences of
Returns:
the number of occurrences of the element in this multiset; possibly zero but never negative

add

public int add(@Nullable
               E element,
               int occurrences)
Adds a number of occurrences of an element to this multiset. Note that if occurrences == 1, this method has the identical effect to Multiset.add(Object). This method is functionally equivalent (except in the case of overflow) to the call addAll(Collections.nCopies(element, occurrences)), which would presumably perform much more poorly.

Specified by:
add in interface Multiset<E>
Parameters:
element - the element to add occurrences of; may be null only if explicitly allowed by the implementation
occurrences - the number of occurrences of the element to add. May be zero, in which case no change will be made.
Returns:
the count of the element before the operation; possibly zero
Throws:
IllegalArgumentException - if the call would result in more than Integer.MAX_VALUE occurrences of element in this multiset.

remove

public int remove(@Nullable
                  Object element,
                  int occurrences)
Description copied from interface: Multiset
Removes a number of occurrences of the specified element from this multiset. If the multiset contains fewer than this number of occurrences to begin with, all occurrences will be removed. Note that if occurrences == 1, this is functionally equivalent to the call remove(element).

Specified by:
remove in interface Multiset<E>
Parameters:
element - the element to conditionally remove occurrences of
occurrences - the number of occurrences of the element to remove. May be zero, in which case no change will be made.
Returns:
the count of the element before the operation; possibly zero

setCount

public int setCount(E element,
                    int count)
Description copied from interface: Multiset
Adds or removes the necessary occurrences of an element such that the element attains the desired count.

Specified by:
setCount in interface Multiset<E>
Parameters:
element - the element to add or remove occurrences of; may be null only if explicitly allowed by the implementation
count - the desired count of the element in this multiset
Returns:
the count of the element before the operation; possibly zero

isEmpty

public boolean isEmpty()
Description copied from class: java.util.AbstractCollection
Returns true if this collection contains no elements.

This implementation returns size() == 0.

Specified by:
isEmpty in interface Collection<E>
Overrides:
isEmpty in class AbstractCollection<E>
Returns:
true if this collection contains no elements

add

public boolean add(@Nullable
                   E element)
Description copied from class: java.util.AbstractCollection
Ensures that this collection contains the specified element (optional operation). Returns true if this collection changed as a result of the call. (Returns false if this collection does not permit duplicates and already contains the specified element.)

Collections that support this operation may place limitations on what elements may be added to this collection. In particular, some collections will refuse to add null elements, and others will impose restrictions on the type of elements that may be added. Collection classes should clearly specify in their documentation any restrictions on what elements may be added.

If a collection refuses to add a particular element for any reason other than that it already contains the element, it must throw an exception (rather than returning false). This preserves the invariant that a collection always contains the specified element after this call returns.

This implementation always throws an UnsupportedOperationException.

Specified by:
add in interface Multiset<E>
Specified by:
add in interface Collection<E>
Overrides:
add in class AbstractCollection<E>
Parameters:
element - element whose presence in this collection is to be ensured
Returns:
true if this collection changed as a result of the call

remove

public boolean remove(Object element)
Description copied from class: java.util.AbstractCollection
Removes a single instance of the specified element from this collection, if it is present (optional operation). More formally, removes an element e such that (o==null ? e==null : o.equals(e)), if this collection contains one or more such elements. Returns true if this collection contained the specified element (or equivalently, if this collection changed as a result of the call).

This implementation iterates over the collection looking for the specified element. If it finds the element, it removes the element from the collection using the iterator's remove method.

Note that this implementation throws an UnsupportedOperationException if the iterator returned by this collection's iterator method does not implement the remove method and this collection contains the specified object.

Specified by:
remove in interface Multiset<E>
Specified by:
remove in interface Collection<E>
Overrides:
remove in class AbstractCollection<E>
Parameters:
element - element to be removed from this collection, if present
Returns:
true if an element was removed as a result of this call

setCount

public boolean setCount(E element,
                        int oldCount,
                        int newCount)
Description copied from interface: Multiset
Conditionally sets the count of an element to a new value, as described in Multiset.setCount(Object, int), provided that the element has the expected current count. If the current count is not oldCount, no change is made.

Specified by:
setCount in interface Multiset<E>
Parameters:
element - the element to conditionally set the count of; may be null only if explicitly allowed by the implementation
oldCount - the expected present count of the element in this multiset
newCount - the desired count of the element in this multiset
Returns:
true if the condition for modification was met. This implies that the multiset was indeed modified, unless oldCount == newCount.

addAll

public boolean addAll(Collection<? extends E> elementsToAdd)
Description copied from class: java.util.AbstractCollection
Adds all of the elements in the specified collection to this collection (optional operation). The behavior of this operation is undefined if the specified collection is modified while the operation is in progress. (This implies that the behavior of this call is undefined if the specified collection is this collection, and this collection is nonempty.)

This implementation iterates over the specified collection, and adds each object returned by the iterator to this collection, in turn.

Note that this implementation will throw an UnsupportedOperationException unless add is overridden (assuming the specified collection is non-empty).

Specified by:
addAll in interface Collection<E>
Overrides:
addAll in class AbstractCollection<E>
Parameters:
elementsToAdd - collection containing elements to be added to this collection
Returns:
true if this collection changed as a result of the call
See Also:
AbstractCollection.add(Object)

removeAll

public boolean removeAll(Collection<?> elementsToRemove)
Description copied from class: java.util.AbstractCollection
Removes all of this collection's elements that are also contained in the specified collection (optional operation). After this call returns, this collection will contain no elements in common with the specified collection.

This implementation iterates over this collection, checking each element returned by the iterator in turn to see if it's contained in the specified collection. If it's so contained, it's removed from this collection with the iterator's remove method.

Note that this implementation will throw an UnsupportedOperationException if the iterator returned by the iterator method does not implement the remove method and this collection contains one or more elements in common with the specified collection.

Specified by:
removeAll in interface Multiset<E>
Specified by:
removeAll in interface Collection<E>
Overrides:
removeAll in class AbstractCollection<E>
Parameters:
elementsToRemove - collection containing elements to be removed from this collection
Returns:
true if this collection changed as a result of the call
See Also:
AbstractCollection.remove(Object), AbstractCollection.contains(Object)

retainAll

public boolean retainAll(Collection<?> elementsToRetain)
Description copied from class: java.util.AbstractCollection
Retains only the elements in this collection that are contained in the specified collection (optional operation). In other words, removes from this collection all of its elements that are not contained in the specified collection.

This implementation iterates over this collection, checking each element returned by the iterator in turn to see if it's contained in the specified collection. If it's not so contained, it's removed from this collection with the iterator's remove method.

Note that this implementation will throw an UnsupportedOperationException if the iterator returned by the iterator method does not implement the remove method and this collection contains one or more elements not present in the specified collection.

Specified by:
retainAll in interface Multiset<E>
Specified by:
retainAll in interface Collection<E>
Overrides:
retainAll in class AbstractCollection<E>
Parameters:
elementsToRetain - collection containing elements to be retained in this collection
Returns:
true if this collection changed as a result of the call
See Also:
AbstractCollection.remove(Object), AbstractCollection.contains(Object)

clear

public void clear()
Description copied from class: java.util.AbstractCollection
Removes all of the elements from this collection (optional operation). The collection will be empty after this method returns.

This implementation iterates over this collection, removing each element using the Iterator.remove operation. Most implementations will probably choose to override this method for efficiency.

Note that this implementation will throw an UnsupportedOperationException if the iterator returned by this collection's iterator method does not implement the remove method and this collection is non-empty.

Specified by:
clear in interface Collection<E>
Overrides:
clear in class AbstractCollection<E>

elementSet

public Set<E> elementSet()
Description copied from interface: Multiset
Returns the set of distinct elements contained in this multiset. The element set is backed by the same data as the multiset, so any change to either is immediately reflected in the other. The order of the elements in the element set is unspecified.

If the element set supports any removal operations, these necessarily cause all occurrences of the removed element(s) to be removed from the multiset. Implementations are not expected to support the add operations, although this is possible.

A common use for the element set is to find the number of distinct elements in the multiset: elementSet().size().

Specified by:
elementSet in interface Multiset<E>
Returns:
a view of the set of distinct elements in this multiset

equals

public boolean equals(@Nullable
                      Object object)
Indicates whether some other object is "equal to" this one.

The equals method implements an equivalence relation on non-null object references:

The equals method for class Object implements the most discriminating possible equivalence relation on objects; that is, for any non-null reference values x and y, this method returns true if and only if x and y refer to the same object (x == y has the value true).

Note that it is generally necessary to override the hashCode method whenever this method is overridden, so as to maintain the general contract for the hashCode method, which states that equal objects must have equal hash codes.

This implementation returns true if other is a multiset of the same size and if, for each element, the two multisets have the same count.

Specified by:
equals in interface Multiset<E>
Specified by:
equals in interface Collection<E>
Overrides:
equals in class Object
Parameters:
object - the reference object with which to compare.
Returns:
true if this object is the same as the obj argument; false otherwise.
See Also:
Object.hashCode(), Hashtable

hashCode

public int hashCode()
Returns a hash code value for the object. This method is supported for the benefit of hashtables such as those provided by java.util.Hashtable.

The general contract of hashCode is:

As much as is reasonably practical, the hashCode method defined by class Object does return distinct integers for distinct objects. (This is typically implemented by converting the internal address of the object into an integer, but this implementation technique is not required by the JavaTM programming language.)

This implementation returns the hash code of Multiset.entrySet().

Specified by:
hashCode in interface Multiset<E>
Specified by:
hashCode in interface Collection<E>
Overrides:
hashCode in class Object
Returns:
a hash code value for this object.
See Also:
Object.equals(java.lang.Object), Hashtable

toString

public String toString()
Returns a string representation of this collection. The string representation consists of a list of the collection's elements in the order they are returned by its iterator, enclosed in square brackets ("[]"). Adjacent elements are separated by the characters ", " (comma and space). Elements are converted to strings as by String.valueOf(Object).

This implementation returns the result of invoking toString on Multiset.entrySet().

Specified by:
toString in interface Multiset<E>
Overrides:
toString in class AbstractCollection<E>
Returns:
a string representation of this collection
