All Implemented Interfaces:

List, Structure

public class SinglyLinkedList
extends AbstractList

Singly linked lists have elements connected by a single reference. They are space-efficient, but tail-related operations may be more costly than with doubly linked lists.

DoublyLinkedList

Constructor Summary

SinglyLinkedList()
Construct an empty list.

Method Summary

void	add(int i, Object o) Insert value at location.
void	add(Object value) Add an object to tail of list.
void	addFirst(Object value) Add a value to head of list.
void	addLast(Object value) Add a value to tail of list.
void	clear() Remove all values from list.
boolean	contains(Object value) Check to see if a value is in list.
Object	get(int i) Get value at location i.
Object	getFirst() Fetch first element of list.
Object	getLast() Fetch last element of list.
int	indexOf(Object value) Determine first location of a value in list.
Iterator	iterator() Returns an iterator traversing list from head to tail.
int	lastIndexOf(Object value) Determine last location of a value in list.
Object	remove(int i) Remove and return value at location i.
Object	remove(Object value) Remove a value from list.
Object	removeFirst() Remove a value from first element of list.
Object	removeLast() Remove last value from list.
Object	set(int i, Object o) Set value stored at location i to object o, returning old value.
int	size() Determine number of elements in list.
