The user of this * interface has precise control over where in the list each element is * inserted. The user can access elements by their integer index (position in * the list), and search for elements in the list.

* * Unlike sets, lists typically allow duplicate elements. More formally, * lists typically allow pairs of elements {@code e1} and {@code e2} * such that {@code e1.equals(e2)}, and they typically allow multiple * null elements if they allow null elements at all. It is not inconceivable * that someone might wish to implement a list that prohibits duplicates, by * throwing runtime exceptions when the user attempts to insert them, but we * expect this usage to be rare.

* * The {@code List} interface places additional stipulations, beyond those * specified in the {@code Collection} interface, on the contracts of the * {@code iterator}, {@code add}, {@code remove}, {@code equals}, and * {@code hashCode} methods. Declarations for other inherited methods are * also included here for convenience.

* * The {@code List} interface provides four methods for positional (indexed) * access to list elements. Lists (like Java arrays) are zero based. Note * that these operations may execute in time proportional to the index value * for some implementations (the {@code LinkedList} class, for * example). Thus, iterating over the elements in a list is typically * preferable to indexing through it if the caller does not know the * implementation.

* * The {@code List} interface provides a special iterator, called a * {@code ListIterator}, that allows element insertion and replacement, and * bidirectional access in addition to the normal operations that the * {@code Iterator} interface provides. A method is provided to obtain a * list iterator that starts at a specified position in the list.

* * The {@code List} interface provides two methods to search for a specified * object. From a performance standpoint, these methods should be used with * caution. In many implementations they will perform costly linear * searches.

* * The {@code List} interface provides two methods to efficiently insert and * remove multiple elements at an arbitrary point in the list.

* * Note: While it is permissible for lists to contain themselves as elements, * extreme caution is advised: the {@code equals} and {@code hashCode} * methods are no longer well defined on such a list. * *

Some list implementations have restrictions on the elements that * they may contain. For example, some implementations prohibit null elements, * and some have restrictions on the types of their elements. Attempting to * add an ineligible element throws an unchecked exception, typically * {@code NullPointerException} or {@code ClassCastException}. Attempting * to query the presence of an ineligible element may throw an exception, * or it may simply return false; some implementations will exhibit the former * behavior and some will exhibit the latter. More generally, attempting an * operation on an ineligible element whose completion would not result in * the insertion of an ineligible element into the list may throw an * exception or it may succeed, at the option of the implementation. * Such exceptions are marked as "optional" in the specification for this * interface. * *

Unmodifiable Lists

*

The {@link List#of(Object...) List.of} and * {@link List#copyOf List.copyOf} static factory methods * provide a convenient way to create unmodifiable lists. The {@code List} * instances created by these methods have the following characteristics: * *

If the list fits in the specified array with room to spare (i.e., * the array has more elements than the list), the element in the array * immediately following the end of the list is set to {@code null}. * (This is useful in determining the length of the list only if * the caller knows that the list does not contain any null elements.) * *
