The user of this 32 * interface has precise control over where in the list each element is 33 * inserted. The user can access elements by their integer index (position in 34 * the list), and search for elements in the list.<p> 35 * 36 * Unlike sets, lists typically allow duplicate elements. More formally, 37 * lists typically allow pairs of elements {@code e1} and {@code e2} 38 * such that {@code e1.equals(e2)}, and they typically allow multiple 39 * null elements if they allow null elements at all. It is not inconceivable 40 * that someone might wish to implement a list that prohibits duplicates, by 41 * throwing runtime exceptions when the user attempts to insert them, but we 42 * expect this usage to be rare.<p> 43 * 44 * The {@code List} interface places additional stipulations, beyond those 45 * specified in the {@code Collection} interface, on the contracts of the 46 * {@code iterator}, {@code add}, {@code remove}, {@code equals}, and 47 * {@code hashCode} methods. Declarations for other inherited methods are 48 * also included here for convenience.<p> 49 * 50 * The {@code List} interface provides four methods for positional (indexed) 51 * access to list elements. Lists (like Java arrays) are zero based. Note 52 * that these operations may execute in time proportional to the index value 53 * for some implementations (the {@code LinkedList} class, for 54 * example). Thus, iterating over the elements in a list is typically 55 * preferable to indexing through it if the caller does not know the 56 * implementation.<p> 57 * 58 * The {@code List} interface provides a special iterator, called a 59 * {@code ListIterator}, that allows element insertion and replacement, and 60 * bidirectional access in addition to the normal operations that the 61 * {@code Iterator} interface provides. A method is provided to obtain a 62 * list iterator that starts at a specified position in the list.<p> 63 * 64 * The {@code List} interface provides two methods to search for a specified 65 * object. From a performance standpoint, these methods should be used with 66 * caution. In many implementations they will perform costly linear 67 * searches.<p> 68 * 69 * The {@code List} interface provides two methods to efficiently insert and 70 * remove multiple elements at an arbitrary point in the list.<p> 71 * 72 * Note: While it is permissible for lists to contain themselves as elements, 73 * extreme caution is advised: the {@code equals} and {@code hashCode} 74 * methods are no longer well defined on such a list. 75 * 76 * <p>Some list implementations have restrictions on the elements that 77 * they may contain. For example, some implementations prohibit null elements, 78 * and some have restrictions on the types of their elements. Attempting to 79 * add an ineligible element throws an unchecked exception, typically 80 * {@code NullPointerException} or {@code ClassCastException}. Attempting 81 * to query the presence of an ineligible element may throw an exception, 82 * or it may simply return false; some implementations will exhibit the former 83 * behavior and some will exhibit the latter. More generally, attempting an 84 * operation on an ineligible element whose completion would not result in 85 * the insertion of an ineligible element into the list may throw an 86 * exception or it may succeed, at the option of the implementation. 87 * Such exceptions are marked as "optional" in the specification for this 88 * interface. 89 * 90 * <h2><a id="immutable">Immutable List Static Factory Methods</a></h2> 91 * <p>The {@link List#of(Object...) List.of()} static factory methods 92 * provide a convenient way to create immutable lists. The {@code List} 93 * instances created by these methods have the following characteristics: 94 * 95 * <ul> 96 * <li>They are <em>structurally immutable</em>. Elements cannot be added, removed, 97 * or replaced. Calling any mutator method will always cause 98 * {@code UnsupportedOperationException} to be thrown. 99 * However, if the contained elements are themselves mutable, 100 * this may cause the List's contents to appear to change. 101 * <li>They disallow {@code null} elements. Attempts to create them with 102 * {@code null} elements result in {@code NullPointerException}. 103 * <li>They are serializable if all elements are serializable. 104 * <li>The order of elements in the list is the same as the order of the 105 * provided arguments, or of the elements in the provided array. 106 * <li>They are <a href="../lang/doc-files/ValueBased.html">value-based</a>. 107 * Callers should make no assumptions about the identity of the returned instances. 108 * Factories are free to create new instances or reuse existing ones. Therefore, 109 * identity-sensitive operations on these instances (reference equality ({@code ==}), 110 * identity hash code, and synchronization) are unreliable and should be avoided. 111 * <li>They are serialized as specified on the 112 * <a href="{@docRoot}/serialized-form.html#java.util.CollSer">Serialized Form</a> 113 * page. 114 * </ul> 115 * 116 * <p>This interface is a member of the 117 * <a href="{@docRoot}/java/util/package-summary.html#CollectionsFramework"> 118 * Java Collections Framework</a>. 119 * 120 * @param <E> the type of elements in this list 121 * 122 * @author Josh Bloch 123 * @author Neal Gafter 124 * @see Collection 125 * @see Set 126 * @see ArrayList 127 * @see LinkedList 128 * @see Vector 129 * @see Arrays#asList(Object[]) 130 * @see Collections#nCopies(int, Object) 131 * @see Collections#EMPTY_LIST 132 * @see AbstractList 133 * @see AbstractSequentialList 134 * @since 1.2 135 */ 136 137 public interface List<E> extends Collection<E> { 138 // Query Operations 139 140 /** 141 * Returns the number of elements in this list.
