我一直是一个简单使用的人:

List<String> names = new ArrayList<>();

我使用接口作为可移植性的类型名称,这样当我问类似这样的问题时,我就可以修改代码。

LinkedList何时应用于ArrayList,反之亦然?


当前回答

以下是ArrayList和LinkedList以及CopyOnWrite ArrayList中的Big-O符号:

阵列列表

get                 O(1)
add                 O(1)
contains            O(n)
next                O(1)
remove              O(n)
iterator.remove     O(n)

链表

get                 O(n)
add                 O(1)
contains            O(n)
next                O(1)
remove              O(1)
iterator.remove     O(1)

CopyOnWrite阵列列表

get                 O(1)
add                 O(n)
contains            O(n)
next                O(1)
remove              O(n)
iterator.remove     O(n)

基于这些,您必须决定选择什么。:)

其他回答

我知道这是一篇老帖子,但我真的不敢相信没有人提到LinkedList实现了Deque。只需查看Deque(和Queue)中的方法;如果您希望进行公平的比较,请尝试对ArrayDeque运行LinkedList,并进行功能比较。

正确或不正确:请在本地执行测试并自行决定!

LinkedList中的编辑/删除速度比ArrayList快。

Array支持的ArrayList需要两倍的大小,在大容量应用程序中更糟糕。

以下是每个操作的单元测试结果。计时单位为纳秒。

    private String getString(Boolean result, int i) {

ArrayList中的get(i)操作比LinkedList更快,因为:ArrayList:List接口的可调整大小的数组实现LinkedList:list和Deque接口的双重链接列表实现

索引到列表中的操作将从开始或结束遍历列表,以更接近指定索引的为准。

您可以根据对该特定列表执行的操作的时间复杂性,使用一个而不是另一个。

数组列表本质上是一个具有添加项等方法的数组(您应该使用通用列表)。它是可以通过索引器(例如[0])访问的项的集合。它意味着从一个项目到下一个项目的进展。

链接列表指定从一个项目到下一个项目(项目A->项目b)的进度。您可以使用数组列表获得相同的效果,但链接列表绝对会说明前一个列表后面应该包含哪些项。
