   public static void main(String[] args)
   {
      ArrayList<Integer> al = new ArrayList<Integer>();
      // before checking ArrayList using isEmpty() method
      System.out.println("Is ArrayList empty: " + al.isEmpty());
      al.add(86);
      al.add(25);
      al.add(53);
      al.add(85);
      // after checking ArrayList using isEmpty() method
      System.out.println("Is ArrayList empty: " + al.isEmpty());
      for(Integer num : al)
      {
         System.out.println(num);
      }
