Java collections
The Collection in Java is a framework that provides an architecture to store and

manipulate the group of objects.
Java Collections can achieve all the operations that you perform on a data such as
searching, sorting, insertion, manipulation, and deletion.
Java Collection means a single unit of objects. Java Collection framework provides
many interfaces (Set, List, Queue, Deque) and classes (ArrayList, Vector, LinkedList,
PriorityQueue, HashSet, LinkedHashSet, TreeSet).
What is Collection in Java

A Collection represents a single unit of objects, i.e., a group.
What is a framework in Java

o It provides readymade architecture.
o It represents a set of classes and interfaces.
o It is optional.
What is Collection framework
The Collection framework represents a unified architecture for storing and

manipulating a group of objects. It has:
1. Interfaces and its implementations, i.e., classes

2. Algorithm

Let us see the hierarchy of Collection framework. The java.util package

contains all the classes and interfaces for the Collection framework.
Hierarchy of Java Collection framework
Methods of Collection interface
There are many methods declared in the Collection interface. They are as
follows:
No. Method Description

1 public boolean add(E e) It is used to insert an element in this
collection.
2 public boolean addAll(Collection<? extends E> c) It is used to insert

the specified collection elements in the invoking collection.
3 public boolean remove(Object element) It is used to delete an

element from the collection.
4 public boolean removeAll(Collection<?> c) It is used to delete all the

elements of the specified collection from the invoking collection.
5 default boolean removeIf(Predicate<? super E> filter) It is used to

delete all the elements of the collection that satisfy the specified predicate.
6 public boolean retainAll(Collection<?> c) It is used to delete all the

elements of invoking collection except the specified collection.
7 public int size() It returns the total number of elements in the

collection.
8 public void clear() It removes the total number of elements from the
collection.
9 public boolean contains(Object element) It is used to search an

element.
10 public boolean containsAll(Collection<?> c) It is used to search

the specified collection in the collection.
11 public Iterator iterator() It returns an iterator.
12 public Object[] toArray() It converts collection into array.
13 public <T> T[] toArray(T[] a) It converts collection into array.

Here, the runtime type of the returned array is that of the specified array.
14 public boolean isEmpty() It checks if collection is empty.
15 default Stream<E> parallelStream() It returns a possibly parallel

Stream with the collection as its source.
16 default Stream<E> stream() It returns a sequential Stream with the

collection as its source.
17 default Spliterator<E> spliterator() It generates a Spliterator over

the specified elements in the collection.
18 public boolean equals(Object element) It matches two collections.
19 public int hashCode() It returns the hash code number of the

collection.
Iterator interface
Iterator interface provides the facility of iterating the elements in a forward

direction only.
Methods of Iterator interface
There are only three methods in the Iterator interface. They are:
No. Method Description
1 public boolean hasNext() It returns true if the iterator has more

elements otherwise it returns false.
2 public Object next() It returns the element and moves the cursor
pointer to the next element.
3 public void remove() It removes the last elements returned by the

iterator. It is less used.
Iterable Interface
The Iterable interface is the root interface for all the collection classes. The
Collection interface extends the Iterable interface and therefore all the
subclasses of Collection interface also implement the Iterable interface.
It contains only one abstract method. i.e.,
Iterator<T> iterator()
It returns the iterator over the elements of type T.
Collection Interface
The Collection interface is the interface which is implemented by all the

classes in the collection framework. It declares the methods that every
collection will have. In other words, we can say that the Collection interface
builds the foundation on which the collection framework depends.
Some of the methods of Collection interface are Boolean add ( Object obj),
Boolean addAll ( Collection c), void clear(), etc. which are implemented by all
the subclasses of Collection interface.
List Interface
List interface is the child interface of Collection interface. It inhibits a list

type data structure in which we can store the ordered collection of objects.
It can have duplicate values.
List interface is implemented by the classes ArrayList, LinkedList, Vector,

and Stack.
To instantiate the List interface, we must use :
List <data-type> list1= new ArrayList();
List <data-type> list2 = new LinkedList();
List <data-type> list3 = new Vector();
List <data-type> list4 = new Stack();
There are various methods in List interface that can be used to insert,
delete, and access the elements from the list.
The classes that implement the List interface are given below.
