10,810 PointsSet<String> links = new TreeSet<String>();
for (String word : links) {
This creates a new empty TreeSet and then starts a for each loop on that set. Because it is an empty Set the for each is skipped and the Set is returned. What you want to do here is create that Set to collect all the authors in the BlogPosts. Then go through each BlogPost and add the author to the Set.
Set<String> authors = new TreeSet<String>();
for(BlogPost post : mPosts) {
authors.add(post.getAuthor());
}
And of course return your authors Set.

Try adding the generic version of set to the variable declaration.
Set allAuthors = new TreeSet<String>();
change that Set to Set<String>

package com.example;
import java.util.List;
import java.util.Set;
import java.util.TreeSet;
import java.util.ArrayList;
public class Blog {
List<BlogPost> mPosts;
public Blog(List<BlogPost> posts) {
mPosts = posts;
}
public List<BlogPost> getPosts() {
return mPosts;
}
public Set<String> getAllAuthors() {
Set<String> links = new TreeSet<String>();
for (String word : links) {
if (word.startsWith("@")) {
links.add(word);
}
}
return links;
}
}
