最大的不同在于基本概念。

从设置和列表界面。集合是数学概念。设置方法扩展集合。但是没有添加新的方法。size()表示基数(more为BitSet。基数，线性计数器，日志日志，HyperLogLog)。addAll()表示联合。retainAll()表示交集。removeAll()表示差异。

However List lack of these concepts. List add a lot of method to support sequence concept which Collection interface not supply. core concept is INDEX. like add(index,element),get(index),search(indexOf()),remove(index) element. List also provide "Collection View" subList. Set do not have view. do not have positional access. List also provide a lot of algorithms in Collections class. sort(List),binarySearch(List),reverse(List),shuffle(List),fill(List). the method params is List interface. duplicate elements are just the result of concepts. not the essential difference.

所以本质的区别在于概念。集合是数学集合的概念。列表是序列的概念。

订购…列表有顺序，集合没有。

元素的有序列表(是否唯一) 遵循Java的名为List的接口 可以通过索引访问吗

实现使用

LinkedList ArrayList

独特元素列表: 遵循Java名为Set的接口 不能通过索引访问

实现使用

HashSet(无序) LinkedHashSet(命令) 树集(按自然顺序或按提供的比较器排序)

接口Set和List都符合Java的名为Collection的接口

List Vs Set

1) Set不允许重复。列表允许重复。基于Set的实现，它还维护插入顺序。

LinkedHashSet。它维护插入顺序。请参考此处

2)包含方法。根据集合的性质，它将为访问提供更好的性能。最好的情况是o(1)但是List有调用contains的性能问题。

List是项的有序分组 Set是一个无序的项目分组，不允许重复(通常)

从概念上讲，我们通常将允许重复的无序分组称为Bag，而不允许重复的无序分组称为Set。

主题名称:列表VS集

我刚刚介绍了Java中最重要的主题——集合框架。我想和你分享我关于收藏的一点知识。其中最重要的是列表、集合、映射。让我们从List和Set开始。

List与Set的区别:

List is a collection class which extends AbstractList class where as Set is a collection class which extends AbstractSet class but both implements Collection interface. List interface allows duplicate values (elements) whereas Set interface does not allow duplicate values. In case of duplicate elements in Set, it replaces older values. List interface allows NULL values where as Set interface does not allow Null values. In case of using Null values in Set it gives NullPointerException. List interface maintains insertion order. That means the way we add the elements in the List in the same way we obtain it using iterator or for-each style. Whereas Set implementations do not necessarily maintain insertion order. (Although SortedSet does using TreeSet, and LinkedHashSet maintains insertion order). List interface has its own methods defined whereas Set interface does not have its own method so Set uses Collection interface methods only. List interface has one legacy class called Vector whereas Set interface does not have any legacy class Last but not the least... The listIterator() method can only be used to cycle through the elements within List Classes whereas we can use iterator() method to access Set class elements

还有什么要补充的吗?请让我知道。

谢谢。
