How to Remove Specific Element from LinkedHashSet in Java

In this example we will show how to remove a specified object or element contained in Java LinkedHashSet object with remove method.

Source Code

package com.beginner.examples;

import java.util.LinkedHashSet;

public class RemoveSpecifiedElementFromLinkedHashSet {

	public static void main(String[] args) {
		
		//create LinkedHashSet.
		LinkedHashSet linkedHashSet = new LinkedHashSet();
		
		linkedHashSet.add("A");
		linkedHashSet.add("B");
		linkedHashSet.add("C");
		linkedHashSet.add("D");
		
		System.out.println("Before remove C, linkedHashSet contains : " + linkedHashSet);
		/*
		 * To remove an element from Java LinkedHashSet object use
		 * remove(Object o) method.
		 */
		
		linkedHashSet.remove("C");
		System.out.println("After remove C, linkedHashSet contains : " + linkedHashSet);

	}

}

Output:

Before remove C, linkedHashSet contains : [A, B, C, D]
After remove C, linkedHashSet contains : [A, B, D]
