LinkedList listIterator() Method in Java

The Java.util.LinkedList.listIterator() method is used to return a list-iterator containing the same elements as that of the LinkedList in proper and same sequence starting from a specific position or index number which is passed as a parameter to this method.

Syntax:

ListIterator new_list = LinkedList.listIterator(int index);

Parameters: The parameter index is an integer type value that specifies the position of the element from where ListIterator starts operating and returning values.

Return Value: The method returns the list created using ListIterator, starting from the specified index.

Below program illustrate the Java.util.LinkedList.listIterator() method:

// Java code to illustrate listIterator()
import java.io.*;
import java.util.LinkedList;
import java.util.ListIterator;

public class LinkedListDemo {
    public static void main(String args[])
    {
        // Creating an empty LinkedList
        LinkedList<String> list = new LinkedList<String>();

        // Use add() method to add elements in the list
        list.add("Geeks");
        list.add("for");
        list.add("Geeks");
        list.add("10");
        list.add("20");

        // Displaying the linkedlist
        System.out.println("LinkedList:" + list);

        // Setting the ListIterator at a specified position
        ListIterator list_Iter = list.listIterator(2);

        // Iterating through the created list from the position
        System.out.println("The list is as follows:");
        while(list_Iter.hasNext()){
           System.out.println(list_Iter.next());
        }
    }
}

Output:

LinkedList:[Geeks, for, Geeks, 10, 20]
The list is as follows:
Geeks
10
20
