The Java Collections reverse(List<?>) method is used to reverse the order of the elements in the specified list.
DeclarationFollowing is the declaration for java.util.Collections.reverse() method.
public static void reverse(List<?> list)Parameters
list − This is the list whose elements are to be reversed.
Return ValueNA
ExceptionUnsupportedOperationException − This is if the specified list or its list-iterator does not support the set operation.
Reversing a List of Integers ExampleThe following example shows the usage of Java Collection reverse(List) method. We've created a List object with some integers, printed the original list. Using reverse(List) method, we've reversed the list and printed it.
package com.tutorialspoint; import java.util.ArrayList; import java.util.Arrays; import java.util.Collections; import java.util.List; public class CollectionsDemo { public static void main(String[] args) { List<Integer> list = new ArrayList<>(Arrays.asList(1,2,3,4,5)); System.out.println("Initial collection value: " + list); // reverse collection Collections.reverse(list); System.out.println("Final collection value: "+list); } }Output
Let us compile and run the above program, this will produce the following result −
Initial collection value: [1, 2, 3, 4, 5] Final collection value: [5, 4, 3, 2, 1]Reversing a List of Strings Example
The following example shows the usage of Java Collection reverse(List) method. We've created a List object with some strings, printed the original list. Using reverse(List) method, we've reversed the list and printed it.
package com.tutorialspoint; import java.util.ArrayList; import java.util.Arrays; import java.util.Collections; import java.util.List; public class CollectionsDemo { public static void main(String[] args) { List<String> list = new ArrayList<>(Arrays.asList("Welcome","to","Tutorialspoint")); System.out.println("Initial collection value: " + list); // reverse this collection Collections.reverse(list); System.out.println("Final collection value: "+list); } }Output
Let us compile and run the above program, this will produce the following result −
Initial collection value: [Welcome, to, Tutorialspoint] Final collection value: [Tutorialspoint, to, Welcome]Reversing a List of Objects Example
The following example shows the usage of Java Collection reverse(List) method. We've created a List object with some Student objects, printed the original list. Using reverse(List) method, we've reversed the list and printed it.
package com.tutorialspoint; import java.util.ArrayList; import java.util.Arrays; import java.util.Collections; import java.util.List; public class CollectionsDemo { public static void main(String[] args) { List<Student> list = new ArrayList<>(Arrays.asList(new Student(1, "Julie"), new Student(2, "Robert"), new Student(3, "Adam"))); System.out.println("Initial collection value: " + list); // reverse this collection Collections.reverse(list); System.out.println("Final collection value: "+list); } } class Student { int rollNo; String name; Student(int rollNo, String name){ this.rollNo = rollNo; this.name = name; } @Override public String toString() { return "[ " + this.rollNo + ", " + this.name + " ]"; } }Output
Let us compile and run the above program, this will produce the following result −
Initial collection value: [[ 1, Julie ], [ 2, Robert ], [ 3, Adam ]] Final collection value: [[ 3, Adam ], [ 2, Robert ], [ 1, Julie ]]
