Java Collections class

Java collection class is used exclusively with static methods that operate on or return collections. It inherits Object class.
The important points about Java Collections class are:
  • Java Collection class supports the polymorphic algorithms that operate on collections.
  • Java Collection class throws a NullPointerException if the collections or class objects provided to them are null.

Collections class declaration

Let's see the declaration for java.util.Collections class.

Java Collections Example

  1. import java.util.*;  
  2. public class CollectionsExample {  
  3.     public static void main(String a[]){      
  4.         List<String> list = new ArrayList<String>();  
  5.         list.add("C");  
  6.         list.add("Core Java");  
  7.         list.add("Advance Java");  
  8.         System.out.println("Initial collection value:"+list);  
  9.         Collections.addAll(list, "Servlet","JSP");  
  10.         System.out.println("After adding elements collection value:"+list);  
  11.         String[] strArr = {"C#", ".Net"};  
  12.         Collections.addAll(list, strArr);  
  13.         System.out.println("After adding array collection value:"+list);  
  14.     }  
  15. }  
Output:
Initial collection value:[C, Core Java, Advance Java]
After adding elements collection value:[C, Core Java, Advance Java, Servlet, JSP]
After adding array collection value:[C, Core Java, Advance Java, Servlet, JSP, C#, .Net]

Java Collections Example: max()

  1. import java.util.*;  
  2. public class CollectionsExample {  
  3.     public static void main(String a[]){         
  4.         List<Integer> list = new ArrayList<Integer>();  
  5.         list.add(46);  
  6.         list.add(67);  
  7.         list.add(24);  
  8.         list.add(16);  
  9.         list.add(8);  
  10.         list.add(12);  
  11.         System.out.println("Value of maximum element from the collection: "+Collections.max(list));  
  12.     }  
  13. }  
Output:
Value of maximum element from the collection: 67

Java Collections Example: min()

  1. import java.util.*;  
  2. public class CollectionsExample {  
  3.     public static void main(String a[]){         
  4.         List<Integer> list = new ArrayList<Integer>();  
  5.         list.add(46);  
  6.         list.add(67);  
  7.         list.add(24);  
  8.         list.add(16);  
  9.         list.add(8);  
  10.         list.add(12);  
  11.         System.out.println("Value of minimum element from the collection: "+Collections.min(list));  
  12.     }  
  13. }  
Output:
Value of minimum element from the collection: 8
