col

are present in the List otherwise it returns

False

.

Exception:

NullPointerException

if the specified collection is NULL. Below programs illustrates the containsAll() method:

Program 1: Java
// Java code to illustrate containsAll() method
import java.util.*;

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

        // Use add() method to add elements
        // into the List
        list.add("Welcome");
        list.add("To");
        list.add("Geeks");
        list.add("4");
        list.add("Geeks");

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

        // Creating another empty List
        List<String> listTemp = new ArrayList<String>();

        listTemp.add("Geeks");
        listTemp.add("4");
        listTemp.add("Geeks");

        System.out.println("Are all the contents equal? "
                           + list.containsAll(listTemp));
    }
}
Output:
List: [Welcome, To, Geeks, 4, Geeks]
Are all the contents equal? true
Program 2: Java
// Java code to illustrate containsAll() method
import java.util.*;

public class ListDemo {
    public static void main(String args[])
    {
        // Creating an empty list
        List<Integer> list = new ArrayList<Integer>();

        // Use add() method to add elements
        // into the List
        list.add(10);
        list.add(15);
        list.add(30);
        list.add(20);
        list.add(5);

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

        // Creating another empty List
        List<Integer> listTemp = new ArrayList<Integer>();

        listTemp.add(30);
        listTemp.add(15);
        listTemp.add(5);

        System.out.println("Are all the contents equal? "
                           + list.containsAll(listTemp));
    }
}
Output:
List: [10, 15, 30, 20, 5]
Are all the contents equal? true
