ProgramGuruTo initialize a set in Kotlin, you can use the setOf function or the mutableSetOf function for immutable and mutable sets, respectively.
In this example,
setOf function, which is a standard library function in Kotlin that creates a read-only (immutable) set.set1 and assign it the result of calling the setOf function with several string arguments, such as "apple", "banana", and "cherry".setOf function creates an immutable set containing the specified elements.set1 to the standard output to verify its contents. Immutable sets do not allow modification, so we will not attempt to add or remove elements from it.fun main() {
val set1 = setOf("apple", "banana", "cherry")
println("Contents of set1: $set1")
}Contents of set1: [apple, banana, cherry]
In this example,
mutableSetOf function, which is a standard library function in Kotlin that creates a mutable set.set2 and assign it the result of calling the mutableSetOf function with several string arguments, such as "apple", "banana", and "cherry".mutableSetOf function creates a mutable set containing the specified elements.set2 using the add method, passing "date" as the argument.set2 using the remove method, passing "banana" as the argument.set2 to the standard output to verify its contents, demonstrating that the set can be modified.fun main() {
val set2 = mutableSetOf("apple", "banana", "cherry")
set2.add("date")
set2.remove("banana")
println("Contents of set2: $set2")
}Contents of set2: [apple, cherry, date]
