Parameters:

location - the index of the element to return

Returns:

the element at the specified index

java.lang.IndexOutOfBoundsException - when location < 0 || >= size()

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Answers an integer hash code for the receiver. Objects which are equal answer the same value for this method.

Specified by:

hashCode in interface Collection

Specified by:

hashCode in interface List

Overrides:

hashCode in class java.lang.Object

Returns:

the receiver's hash

See Also:

equals(java.lang.Object)

indexOf

public int indexOf(java.lang.Object object)

Searches this List for the specified object and returns the index of the first occurrence.

Specified by:

indexOf in interface List

Parameters:

Returns:

the index of the first occurrence of the object

iterator

public Iterator iterator()

Answers an Iterator on the elements of this List. The elements are iterated in the same order that they occur in the List.

Specified by:

java.lang.IndexOutOfBoundsException - when location < 0 || >= size()

removeRange

protected void removeRange(int start,
                           int end)

Removes the objects in the specified range from the start to the, but not including, end index.

subList

public List subList(int start,
                    int end)

Returns a part of consecutive elements of this list as a view. From start (inclusive), to end(exclusive). The returned view will be of zero length if start equals end. Any change occurs in the returned subList will be reflected to the original list, and vice-versa. All the supported optional operations by the original list will also be supported by this subList. This method can be used as a handy method to do some operations on a sub range of the original list. For example: list.subList(from, to).clear(); If the original list is modified other than through the returned subList, the behavior of the returned subList becomes undefined. The returned subList is a subclass of AbstractList. The subclass stores offset, size of itself, and modCount of the original list. If the original list implements RandomAccess interface, the returned subList also implements RandomAccess interface. The subList's set(int, Object), get(int), add(int, Object), remove(int), addAll(int, Collection) and removeRange(int, int) methods first check the bounds, adjust offsets and then call the corresponding methods of the original AbstractList. addAll(Collection c) method of the returned subList calls the original addAll(offset + size, c). The listIterator(int) method of the subList wraps the original list iterator. The iterator() method of the subList invokes the original listIterator() method, and the size() method merely returns the size of the subList. All methods will throw a ConcurrentModificationException if the modCount of the original list is not equal to the expected value.

Specified by:

subList in interface List

Parameters:

start - start index of the subList, include start

end - end index of the subList, exclude end

Returns:

a subList view of this list start from start (inclusive), end with end (exclusive)

Throws:

java.lang.IndexOutOfBoundsException - when (start < 0 || end > size())

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - when (start > end)
