Reverse order of all elements of ArrayList with Java Collections


In order to reverse order of all elements of ArrayList with Java Collections, we use the Collections.reverse() method.

Declaration −The java.util.Collections.reverse method is declared as follows −

public static void reverse(List<?> list)

Let us see a program to reverse order of all elements of ArrayList with Java Collections −

Example

 Live Demo

import java.util.*;
public class Example {
   public static void main (String[] args) {
      ArrayList<Integer> list = new ArrayList<Integer>();
      list.add(1);
      list.add(2);
      list.add(7);
      list.add(8);
      list.add(3);
      list.add(9);
      System.out.println("Original list : " + list);
      Collections.reverse(list); // reversing the list
      System.out.println("Reversed list : " + list);
   }
}

Output

Original list : [1, 2, 7, 8, 3, 9]
Reversed list : [9, 3, 8, 7, 2, 1]
