Public Method headSet

abstract SortedSet headSet(Object toElement)

_INSERT_METHOD_SIGNATURE_HERE_

Returns a view of the portion of this sorted set whose elements are strictly less than toElement. The returned sorted set is backed by this sorted set, so changes in the returned sorted set are reflected in this sorted set, and vice-versa. The returned sorted set supports all optional set operations.

The sorted set returned by this method will throw an IllegalArgumentException if the user attempts to insert a element outside the specified range.

This method always returns a view that does not contain its (high) endpoint. If you need a view that does contain this endpoint, and the element type allows for calculation of the successor a given value, merely request a headSet bounded by successor(highEndpoint).
