Example 1

import java.util.*;
public class InterfaceSpliteratorHasCharacteristicsExample1 {  
     public static void main(String args[]){
    	  //Create ArrayList
    	  ArrayList<Integer> number_List = new ArrayList<> ();
    	  //Get Spliterator Object
    	  Spliterator<Integer> mySpliterator = number_List.spliterator();  	 
    	  //Add values in ArrayList
    	  number_List.add(1);
    	  number_List.add(2);
    	  number_List.add(3);
    	  number_List.add(4);   	     	  
    	  //Check for characteristics
   System.out.println("hasCharacteristics Present? : "+mySpliterator.hasCharacteristics(mySpliterator.characteristics()));                
        }  
}

Output:

hasCharacteristics Present? : true

Example 2

import java.util.*;
public class InterfaceSpliteratorHasCharacteristicsExample2 {  
     public static void main(String args[]){
    	   //Create HashSet
    	   Set<String> list = new HashSet<>();
         Spliterator<String> splitr = list.spliterator();
         if(splitr.hasCharacteristics(Spliterator.ORDERED)){
             System.out.println("ORDERED");
         }
         if(splitr.hasCharacteristics(Spliterator.DISTINCT)){
             System.out.println("DISTINCT");
         }
         if(splitr.hasCharacteristics(Spliterator.SORTED)){
             System.out.println("SORTED");
         }
         if(splitr.hasCharacteristics(Spliterator.SIZED)){
             System.out.println("SIZED");
         }
         if(splitr.hasCharacteristics(Spliterator.SUBSIZED)){
             System.out.println("SUBSIZED");
         }
     }
}

Output:
