java中isInArray,Is an arrayList in Java an array or a list?

ArrayList implements the List interface

If you look at the ArrayList inner implementation, you will notice that it is wrapped around an array.

For instance here is one constructor implementation:

when you create a new ArrayList with initial capacity

public More ...ArrayList(int initialCapacity) {

super();

if (initialCapacity < 0)

throw new IllegalArgumentException("Illegal Capacity: "+

initialCapacity);

this.elementData = new Object[initialCapacity];

}
