Linked List Example
This section discusses an
example to demonstrate
the various methods of List interface. We are using two classes ArrayList and
LinkedList in the example code. The code below is similar to the previous example, but it performs
many List operations. Lets discuss
the example code.
Description of program:
This program helps you in storing the large amount
of data as a collection. The LinkedList is a part of collection that constructs
a list containing the elements of the specified collection. Iterator methods
returns the values in the order in which they are stored.
If you want to insert the data in the linkedList
then use add() method. The hasNext() method returns
true if the iterator contains more elements and the next() method returns
the next element in the iteration. To insert and remove the
data at first, last and specified position in the linkedList, you use the addFirst(),
addLast(), add(), removeFirst(), removeLast() and
remove() methods. To retrieve the element with respect to a specified
position use the
getFirst(), getLast() and get() methods.
Here is the code of program:
import java.util.*;
public class LinkedListExample{
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println("Linked List Example!");
LinkedList <Integer>list = new LinkedList<Integer>();
int num1 = 11, num2 = 22, num3 = 33, num4 = 44;
int size;
Iterator iterator;
//Adding data in the list
list.add(num1);
list.add(num2);
list.add(num3);
list.add(num4);
size = list.size();
System.out.print( "Linked list data: ");
//Create a iterator
iterator = list.iterator();
while (iterator.hasNext()){
System.out.print(iterator.next()+" ");
}
System.out.println();
//Check list empty or not
if (list.isEmpty()){
System.out.println("Linked list is empty");
}
else{
System.out.println( "Linked list size: " + size);
}
System.out.println("Adding data at 1st location: 55");
//Adding first
list.addFirst(55);
System.out.print("Now the list contain: ");
iterator = list.iterator();
while (iterator.hasNext()){
System.out.print(iterator.next()+" ");
}
System.out.println();
System.out.println("Now the size of list: " + list.size());
System.out.println("Adding data at last location: 66");
//Adding last or append
list.addLast(66);
System.out.print("Now the list contain: ");
iterator = list.iterator();
while (iterator.hasNext()){
System.out.print(iterator.next()+" ");
}
System.out.println();
System.out.println("Now the size of list: " + list.size());
System.out.println("Adding data at 3rd location: 55");
//Adding data at 3rd position
list.add(2,99);
System.out.print("Now the list contain: ");
iterator = list.iterator();
while (iterator.hasNext()){
System.out.print(iterator.next()+" ");
}
System.out.println();
System.out.println("Now the size of list: " + list.size());
//Retrieve first data
System.out.println("First data: " + list.getFirst());
//Retrieve lst data
System.out.println("Last data: " + list.getLast());
//Retrieve specific data
System.out.println("Data at 4th position: " + list.get(3));
//Remove first
int first = list.removeFirst();
System.out.println("Data removed from 1st location: " + first);
System.out.print("Now the list contain: ");
iterator = list.iterator();
//After removing data
while (iterator.hasNext()){
System.out.print(iterator.next()+" ");
}
System.out.println();
System.out.println("Now the size of list: " + list.size());
//Remove last
int last = list.removeLast();
System.out.println("Data removed from last location: " + last);
System.out.print("Now the list contain: ");
iterator = list.iterator();
//After removing data
while (iterator.hasNext()){
System.out.print(iterator.next()+" ");
}
System.out.println();
System.out.println("Now the size of list: " + list.size());
//Remove 2nd data
int second = list.remove(1);
System.out.println("Data removed from 2nd location: " + second);
System.out.print("Now the list contain: ");
iterator = list.iterator();
//After removing data
while (iterator.hasNext()){
System.out.print(iterator.next()+" ");
}
System.out.println();
System.out.println("Now the size of list: " + list.size());
//Remove all
list.clear();
if (list.isEmpty()){
System.out.println("Linked list is empty");
}
else{
System.out.println( "Linked list size: " + size);
}
}
