The
indexOf() method in
org.javatuples is used to find the index of a value, passed as parameter, in TupleClass. This method takes the parameter of Object type, so that it can check for all type of values. It is inherited from the JavaTuple class. This method can be used to any tuple class object of javatuples library. It returns an int which is the first index of the value passed as the parameter, if found. If not found, then it returns -1.
Method Declaration:
public final int indexOf(Object value)
Syntax:
int index = TupleClassObject.indexOf(Object value)
Here
TupleClassObject represents the JavaTuple Class object used like Unit, Quintet, Decade, etc.
Return Value: This method returns an int which is the first index of the value passed as the parameter, if found. If not found, then it returns -1.
Below programs illustrate the various ways to use indexOf() method:
Program 1: Using indexOf() with Unit class:
Output:
Index of GeeksforGeeks = 0
Index of Present = -1
Program 2: Using indexOf() with Quartet class:
Output:
Index of GeeksforGeeks = 1
Index of 5 = -1
Note: Similarly, it can be used with any other JavaTuple Class.
