How ArrayList and LinkedList differ from each other? What is the possible use case where ArrayList and LinkedList fits?

Answer»
Characteristic
ArrayList
LinkedList
Internal datastructure
Internally ArrayList uses a dynamic array to manipulate the record
LinkedList works on the doubly linked list data structure.
Modifying the data
Insertion and deletion in the start and middle of the array list if slow
Insertion and deletion in the middle of the linked list is fast as comparison of LinkedList
Implementation
ArrayList is implemented only List interface
LinkedList implements both List and Deque interface
Searching performance
Searching is fast in ArrayList, all its need the index position to get the desired value
In LinkedList searching is slower, because it NEEDS to traverse the entire list
Complexity
In ArrayList, the search complexity is O(1)
In LinkedLis,t the search complexity is O(n)
Declare and adding the data in the list
List<String>arrayList=new ArrayList<String>();//creating arraylist
arrayList.add("Java");
arrayList.add("SPRING");    
arrayList.add("Junit");    
arrayList.add("jdbc");  
List<String>linkedList=new LinkedList<String>();//creating linkedlist
linkedList.add("James");//adding object in linkedlist
linkedList.add("Serena");    
linkedList.add("Swati");    
linkedList.add("JUNAID");  
Searching of the data in the list


Deletion of the data in the list


Use case
One can use the ArrayList when we the logic require the searching and getting off the record frequently
One can use the LinkedList, when logic requires, frequent data insertion and deletion.
