| 9. 11. 14. Removing a Single Element |
|
|
Use the remove() method to remove a single element: |
- public boolean remove(Object element)
- Removes a single element by checking for equality,
- Returns true if the object was found and removed from the list,
- Otherwise, false is returned.
|
If the list contains duplicates, the first element in the list that matches the element will be removed. |
If removal is not supported, you'll get an UnsupportedOperationException. |
If the index passed in is outside the valid range of elements, an IndexOutOfBoundsException is thrown. |

System.out.println(list.remove(0));
System.out.println(list.remove("B"));
