    Main differences between a HashSet and TreeSet are:

    1. Ordering: In a HashSet elements are stored in a random

    order. In a TreeSet, elements are stored according to

    natural ordering.

    2. Null Value Element: We can store null value object in a

    HashSet. A TreeSet does not allow to add a null value

    object.

    3. Performance: HashSet performs basic operations like

    add(), remove(), contains(), size() etc in a constant size

    time. A TreeSet performs these operations at the order of

    log(n) time.

    4. Speed: A HashSet is better than a TreeSet in performance

    for most of operations like add(), remove(), contains(),

    size() etc .

    5. Internal Structure: a HashMap in Java internally backs a

    HashSet. A NavigableMap backs a TreeSet internally.

    6. Features: A TreeSet has more features compared to a

    HashSet. It has methods like pollFirst(), pollLast(), first(),

    last(), ceiling(), lower() etc.

    7. Element Comparison: A HashSet uses equals() method for

    comparison. A TreeSet uses compareTo() method for

    comparison to maintain ordering of elements.
