The drop() method is utilized to delete the first 'n' elements.
Method Definition: def drop(n: Int): SortedMap[A, B] Return Type: It returns all the elements of the SortedMap except the first 'n' elements.
Example #1: Scala
// Scala program of drop()
// method
import scala.collection.SortedMap

// Creating object
object GfG
{ 

    // Main method
    def main(args:Array[String])
    {
    
        // Creating a SortedMap
        val m1 = SortedMap("geeks" -> 5, "for" -> 3, "cs" -> 5)
        
        // Applying drop method
        val result = m1.drop(1)
        
        // Displays output
        println(result)
    
    }
}
Output:
Map(for -> 3, geeks -> 5)
Example #2: Scala
// Scala program of drop()
// method
import scala.collection.SortedMap

// Creating object
object GfG
{ 

    // Main method
    def main(args:Array[String])
    {
    
        // Creating a SortedMap
        val m1 = SortedMap("geeks" -> 5, "for" -> 3, "geeks" -> 5)
        
        // Applying drop method
        val result = m1.drop(1)
        
        // Displays output
        println(result)
    
    }
}
Output:
Map(geeks -> 5)
So, both the identical keys are removed from the SortedMap.
