ARRAY LIST

Collection in java
JAVA ARRAYLIST
The ArrayList class is a resizable array which can be found in the java.util package.
The difference between a built-in array and an ArrayList in Java, is that the size of an array
cannot be modified (if you want to add or remove elements to/from an array, you have to create a
new one). While elements can be added and removed from an ArrayList whenever you want.

Syntax
import java.util.ArrayList; // import the ArrayList class
ArrayList<String> cars = new ArrayList<String>(); // Create
an ArrayList object
Add Items
The ArrayList class has many useful methods. For example, to add elements to the
list, use the add() method:

import java.util.ArrayList;
public class Main {
public static void main(String[] args) { A
ArrayList<String> person = new ArrayList<String>();
person.add(“Sita");
person.add(“Gita");
Person.add(“Rita");
person.add(“Meeta");
System.out.println(person);
}
}
You can also add an item at a specified position by referring to the index number

import java.util.ArrayList;
public class Main {
public static void main(String[] args) { A
ArrayList<String> person = new ArrayList<String>();
person.add(“Sita"); //0
person.add(“Gita"); // 1
Person.add(“Rita"); //2
person.add(“Meeta"); //3
System.out.println(person);
person.add( 2,“Radha");
}
}
Access an Item
To access an element in the ArrayList, use the get() method and refer
to the index number:

person.get(0);

Change an Item
To modify an element, use the set() method and refer to the
index number:

person. Set(0, “laxmi");


Remove an Item
To remove an element, use the remove() method and refer to the index number:

person.remove(0);

person.remove(“Sita”);

ArrayList Size
To find out how many elements an ArrayList have, use the size method:

person.size();
Loop Through an ArrayList
Loop through the elements of an ArrayList with a for loop, and use the size() method to specify
how many times the loop should run:
Example
import java.util.ArrayList;
public class Main {
public static void main(String[] args) {
ArrayList<String> person = new ArrayList<String>();
person.add(“Sita");
person.add(“Gita");
Person.add(“Rita");
person.add(“Meeta");
for (int i = 0; i < person.size(); i++) {
System.out.println(person.get(i));
}
}
}
