What are the main implementations of the List interface ?

Question

What are the most important List implements?

Answer 1

There are primarily three implements of the List interface and they are as follows:

• Vector : This is a synchronizable implementation of a resizable array providing legacy methods as well.
• ArrayList: Normal resizeable implementation of an array in the List interface. This is also the best implementation of the list interface and the most widely used one.
• LinkedList :If you require a doubly linked-list implementation of the List interface, for particular situations where traversing linearly with an ArrayList may cost more resources, you should use a LinkedList. 

  

If you're looking to learn java, I'd say Arrays and LinkedLists should be your primary learning tools to implement your projects.
