Difference between LinkedList and ArrayList

2014-02-18T17:28:00.000+08:00

ArrayList and LinkedList both implements List interface and their methods and results are almost identical. However there are few differences between them which make one better over another depending on the requirement.

ArrayList Vs LinkedList

Both ArrayList and LinkedList are implementation of List interface.

They both maintain the elements insertion order which means while displaying ArrayList and LinkedList elements the result set would be having the same order in which the elements got inserted into the List.

Both these classes are non-synchronized and can be made synchronized explicitly by using Collections.synchronizedList method.

The iterator and listIterator returned by these classes are fail-fast (if list is structurally modified at any time after the iterator is created, in any way except through the iterator’s own remove or add methods, the iterator will throw a ConcurrentModificationException).

When to use LinkedList and when to use ArrayList?

1. Search: ArrayList search operation is pretty fast compared to the LinkedList search operation. get(int index) in ArrayList gives the performance of O(1) while LinkedList performance is O(n).

Reason: ArrayList maintains index based system for its elements as it uses array data structure implicitly which makes it faster for searching an element in the list. On the other side LinkedList implements doubly linked list which requires the traversal through all the elements for searching an element.

2. Deletion: LinkedList remove operation gives O(1) performance while ArrayList gives variable performance: O(n) in worst case (while removing first element) and O(1) in best case (While removing last element).

Conclusion: LinkedList element deletion is faster compared to ArrayList.

Reason: LinkedList’s each element maintains two pointers (addresses) which points to the both neighbor elements in the list. Hence removal only requires change in the pointer location in the two neighbor nodes (elements) of the node which is going to be removed. While In ArrayList all the elements need to be shifted to fill out the space created by removed element.

3. Inserts Performance: LinkedList add method gives O(1) performance while ArrayList gives O(n)in worst case. Reason is same as explained for remove.

4. Memory Overhead: ArrayList maintains indexes and element data while LinkedList maintains element data and two pointers for neighbor nodes hence the memory consumption is high in LinkedList comparatively.

There are few similarities between these classes which are as follows:

As explained above the insert and remove operations give good performance (O(1)) in LinkedList compared to ArrayList(O(n)). Hence if there is a requirement of frequent addition and deletion in application then LinkedList is a best choice.
Search (get method) operations are fast in Arraylist (O(1)) but not in LinkedList (O(n)) so If there are less add and remove operations and more search operations requirement, ArrayList would be your best bet.

Below is an example of ArrayList in Java

import java.util.ArrayList;

import java.util.List;

public class SampleArrayList {

public static void main(String[] args){

ArrayList arrList = new ArrayList();

//adding elements to the end

arrList.add("Froilan");

arrList.add("Jillian");

arrList.add("Mary Ann");

arrList.add("Kawangis");

System.out.println("Actual ArrayList:" + arrList);

List list = new ArrayList();

list.add("Bong");

list.add("Christian");

arrList.addAll(list);

System.out.println("After Copy: " + arrList);

}
}

Below is an example of LinkedList in Java

import java.util.LinkedList;

public class TestClass {

/**

* @param args

public static void main(String[] args) {

LinkedList lnkList = new LinkedList();

lnkList.add("Froilan");

lnkList.add("Mary Ann");

lnkList.add("Jillian");

lnkList.add("Benito");

System.out.println(lnkList);

Kawangis Year Long Events

2013-12-05T18:18:00.001+08:00

Recently, our group Kawangis had successfully organized a year long event. The event was dubbed as "Battle of the generation" which means each generation of the Kawangis participates by organizing an event of their choice. It started when Generation 1 & 2 launched a kick-off event that was held last May 2013, climbing Mt. San Cristobal Traverse. The purpose of the events is to bring up the fire that was long gone and also to relived the camaraderie that was built through the years of it's existence. I will not type any longer, i will let the pictures and videos tell the rest of the story. So here it is, enjoy viewing.

Jillian first ever climb - Unfinished business

2013-10-24T17:08:00.003+08:00

Just recently, our group Kawangis organized a day hike climb to Mt. Pico De Loro in Ternate, Cavite. The plan was to bring our daughter up in the mountain, however, we failed to bring her to the campsite because of a sudden rain and also my daughter won't allow me to carry her all through out the hike. As i'm worried to my wife carrying my daughter up to the campsite and that she might get injured as we go along. We decided that She and my daughter together with 2 companions would stay at the base camp and wait for us to comeback from the hike to the summit. My cousin and I proceeded to hike up until the summit. We were running on the trail so we can lessen the time spent walking and for us to be able to come back early to the base camp and we can be able to accompany my wife and daughter back to the jumpoff. The hike did well as we planned. We arrived at the jumpoff point on time before it gets dark. The hike was successfully however it leaves us an unfinished business, so for the next climb, we were planning of bringing our daughter once again and hopefully it will be successful. Until then, wait for my next write up on our next climb.

Balite Falls, Amadeo Cavite

2013-03-01T14:27:00.000+08:00

Last February 23, 2013 we went to Balite Falls located in Amadeo, Cavite for an occular inspection because we are looking for the right place to celebrate our group Kawangis' anniversary. There were four of us, My Wife and I, together with our close friends, Bong and Tin. We've met at around 2 o'clock in the afternoon at Jollibee Junction Alabang. We proceeded to Alabang terminal and rode a van bound to Trece Martires for only 60 pesos each. We arrived in Manggahan, somewhere in General Trias Cavite at around 3 o'clock in the afternoon. We headed to KFC to have our late lunch and after that we proceeded to Puregold to buy some stuffs that we need in our stay at the resort. We rode a jeep bound to Amadeo for only 18 pesos each and we dropped off to the road with the Balite Falls signboard.

Balite Falls

Height: approximately 3 meters / 9.8 feet

Basin's Depth: approximately 5.4 meters / 18 feet

Here are some memorable pictures:

After our trip to Balite Falls, we went to Tagaytay and take our lunch at Dencio's

If you want to go to Balite falls, just use the route that we had taken. Entrance fee is 150 per head for an overnight stay and the huts ranges from 500-1000.

Iterating over List elements

2013-02-19T13:21:00.000+08:00

The common way to iterate over List elements:

List list;
for (int i = 0; i < list.size(); i++) {
    doSomething(list.get(i));
}

The correct way to iterate polymorphic List is via Iterator or for-each loop:

List list;
for (Iterator it = list.iterator(); it.hasNext(); ) {
    doSomething(it.next());
}

// for each
for (E elem : list) {
    doSomething(elem);
}

Kaleidoscope World

So many faces, so many races
Different voices, different choices
Some are mad, while others laugh
Some live alone with no better half
Others grieve while others curse
And others mourn behind a big black hearse
Some are pure and some half-bred
Some are sober and some are wasted
Some are rich because of fate and
Some are poor with no food on their plate
Some stand out while others blend
Some are fat and stout while some are thin
Some are friends and some are foes
Some have some while some have most

Every color and every hue
Is represented by me and you
Take a slide in the slope
Take a look in the kaleidoscope
Spinnin' round, make it twirl
In this kaleidoscope world

Some are great and some are few
Others lie while some tell the truth
Some say poems and some do sing
Others sing through their guitar strings
Some know it all while some act dumb
Let the bassline strum to the bang of the drum
Some can swim while some will sink
And some will find their minds and think
Others walk while others run
You can't talk peace and have a gun
Some are hurt and start to cry
Don't ask me how don't ask me why
Some are friends and some are foes
Some have some while some have most

Every color and every hue
Is represented by me and you
Take a slide in the slope
Take a look in the kaleidoscope
Spinnin' round, make it twirl
In this kaleidoscope world

Tim Cone is B-MEG's new head coach

2011-09-14T17:17:00.001+08:00

Success comes in all shapes and sizes. But for the B-MEG Llamados, it might just come in the shape of a triangle.

Tim Cone was at the B-MEG Llamados practice Wednesday and was introduced as the new head coach. He will tap former Alaska players Johnny Abarrientos and Jeffrey Cariaso as assistant coaches. The two new assistant coaches will be joined by current assistant coach Koy Banal.

Former acting head coach Richard del Rosario, who confirmed the news to GMA News Online, will slide back to the other assistant coaching spot. Del Rosario, who is the current coach of the College of St. Benilde Blazers in the NCAA and the PC Gilmore Wizards in the PBA D-League, replaced Jorge Gallent as the Llamados' acting head coach two weeks ago.

Gallent will now head over to either of the two San Miguel Corporation (SMC) teams (Ginebra or Petron), while assistant coach Art dela Cruz will move to Ginebra.

Cone found a new home within the SMC group in the PBA just two weeks after leaving the Alaska Aces. His acceptance of the head coaching job with the Llamados means that the team will now be adopting the triangle offense that he popularized in the country.

The American has started to direct practice for the Llamados Wednesday. To catch up, Cone has the team practicing twice a day in preparation for the All Filipino Cup.

The triangle offense yielded championships for teams like the Chicago Bulls and the Los Angeles Lakers in the NBA through coach Phil Jackson and assistant coach Tex Winter, who learned it as a player for the University of Southern California Trojans coach Sam Barry.

In the Philippines, Cone used the triangle offense with the Alaska Aces, which resulted to 13 titles and a grand slam in 1996. — JVP/OMG, GMA News
