The java.util.concurrent.atomic.AtomicInteger.getAndAdd() is an inbuilt method in java that adds the given value to the current value and returns the value before updation which is of data-type int.
Syntax:
Java
Java
public final int getAndAdd(int val)Parameters: The function accepts a single mandatory parameter val which specifies the value to be added to the current value. Return value: The function returns the value before addition is performed to the previous value. Program below demonstrates the function: Program 1:
// Java program that demonstrates
// the getAndAdd() function
import java.util.concurrent.atomic.AtomicInteger;
public class GFG {
public static void main(String args[])
{
// Initially value as 0
AtomicInteger val
= new AtomicInteger(0);
// Adds 7 and gets the previous value
int res
= val.getAndAdd(7);
// Prints the updated value
System.out.println("Previous value: "
+ res);
System.out.println("Current value: "
+ val);
}
}
Output:
Program 2:
Previous value: 0 Current value: 7
// Java program that demonstrates
// the getAndAdd() function
import java.util.concurrent.atomic.AtomicInteger;
public class GFG {
public static void main(String args[])
{
// Initially value as 18
AtomicInteger val
= new AtomicInteger(18);
// Prints the updated value
System.out.println("Previous value: "
+ val);
// Adds 8 and gets the previous value
int res = val.getAndAdd(8);
// Prints the updated value
System.out.println("Previous value: "
+ res);
System.out.println("Current value: "
+ val);
}
}
