Java Guava | Longs.concat() method with Examples

The concat() method of Longs Class in the Guava library is used to concatenate the values of many arrays into a single array. These long arrays to be concatenated are specified as parameters to this method.

For example: concat(new long[] {1, 2}, new long[] {3, 4, 5}, new long[] {6, 7} returns the array {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7}.

Syntax:

public static long[] concat(long[]... arrays)

Parameter: This method accepts arrays as parameter which is the long arrays to be concatenated by this method. Return Value: This method returns a single long array which contains all the specified long array values in its original order. Below programs illustrate the use of concat() method: Example 1:

Java

// Java code to show implementation of
// Guava's Longs.concat() method

import com.google.common.primitives.Longs;
import java.util.Arrays;

class GFG {

    // Driver's code
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {

        // Creating 2 Long arrays
        long[] arr1 = { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 };
        long[] arr2 = { 6, 2, 7, 0, 8 };

        System.out.println("Long Array 1: "
                           + Arrays.toString(arr1));

        System.out.println("Long Array 2: "
                           + Arrays.toString(arr2));

        // Using Longs.concat() method to combine
        // elements from both arrays
        // into a single array
        long[] res = Longs.concat(arr1, arr2);

        // Displaying the single combined array
        System.out.println("Combined Array: "
                           + Arrays.toString(res));
    }
}

Output:

Long Array 1: [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
Long Array 2: [6, 2, 7, 0, 8]
Combined Array: [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 2, 7, 0, 8]

Example 2:

Java

// Java code to show implementation of
// Guava's Longs.concat() method

import com.google.common.primitives.Longs;
import java.util.Arrays;

class GFG {

    // Driver's code
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {

        // Creating 4 long arrays
        long[] arr1 = { 1, 2, 3 };
        long[] arr2 = { 4, 5 };
        long[] arr3 = { 6, 7, 8 };
        long[] arr4 = { 9, 0 };

        System.out.println("Long Array 1: "
                           + Arrays.toString(arr1));

        System.out.println("Long Array 2: "
                           + Arrays.toString(arr2));

        System.out.println("Long Array 3: "
                           + Arrays.toString(arr3));

        System.out.println("Long Array 4: "
                           + Arrays.toString(arr4));

        // Using Longs.concat() method to combine
        // elements from both arrays
        // into a single array
        long[] res
            = Longs
                  .concat(arr1, arr2, arr3, arr4);

        // Displaying the single combined array
        System.out.println("Combined Array: "
                           + Arrays.toString(res));
    }
}

Output:

Long Array 1: [1, 2, 3]
Long Array 2: [4, 5]
Long Array 3: [6, 7, 8]
Long Array 4: [9, 0]
Combined Array: [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 0]
