create a arraylist in java code example

Example 1: java create arraly list

List<String> words = new ArrayList<String>();

Example 2: how to make an arraylist java

ArrayList<Integer> integerArray = new ArrayList<Integer>();
ArrayList<String> stringArray = new ArrayList<String>();
ArrayList<Double> doubleArray = new ArrayList<Double>();
//... keep replacing what is inside the <> with the appropriate
//data type

Example 3: java arraylist

import java.util.List; //list abstract class
import java.util.ArrayList; //arraylist class

//Object Lists
List l = new ArrayList();
ArrayList a = new ArrayList();

//Specialized List
List<String> l = new ArrayList<String>();
ArrayList<Integer> a = new ArrayList<Integer>();
//only reference data types allowed in brackets <>

//Initial Capacity
List<Double> l = new ArrayList<Double>(5);
//list will start with a capacity of 5
//saves allocation times
