operator fun <T> Array<out T>.contains(element: T): Boolean

operator fun ByteArray.contains(element: Byte): Boolean

operator fun ShortArray.contains(element: Short): Boolean

operator fun IntArray.contains(element: Int): Boolean

@DeprecatedSinceKotlin("1.4") operator fun FloatArray.contains(
    element: Float
): Boolean

@DeprecatedSinceKotlin("1.4") operator fun DoubleArray.contains(
    element: Double
): Boolean

operator fun BooleanArray.contains(element: Boolean): Boolean

operator fun CharArray.contains(element: Char): Boolean

Returns true if element is found in the array.

operator fun <T> Iterable<T>.contains(element: T): Boolean

Returns true if element is found in the collection.

operator fun <K, V> Map<out K, V>.contains(key: K): Boolean

Checks if the map contains the given key.

This method allows to use the x in map syntax for checking whether an object is contained in the map.
