The Java LinkedList remove() method removes first element of the list. Shifts any subsequent elements to the left (subtracts one from their indices).
DeclarationFollowing is the declaration for java.util.LinkedList.remove() method
public E remove(int index)Parameters
NA
Return ValueThis method returns the first element.
ExceptionNoSuchElementException − if list is empty.
Java LinkedList remove(object) Method DescriptionThe Java LinkedList remove(int index) method removes the element at the specified position in this list. Shifts any subsequent elements to the left (subtracts one from their indices).
DeclarationFollowing is the declaration for java.util.LinkedList.remove() method
public E remove(int index)Parameters
index − The index of the element to be removed .
Return ValueThis method returns the element that was removed from the list .
ExceptionIndexOutOfBoundsException − if the index is out of range.
Java LinkedList remove(object) Method DescriptionThe Java LinkedList remove(Object) method removes the first occurrence of the specified element from this list, if it is present.If the list does not contain the element, it is unchanged.
DeclarationFollowing is the declaration for java.util.LinkedList.remove() method
public boolean remove(Object o)Parameters
o − The element to be removed from this list, if present.
Return ValueThis method returns true if this list contained the specified element, else the list is unchanged.

Removing an Element from a LinkedList of Integers ExampleThe following example shows the usage of Java LinkedList remove() method. We're creating a LinkedList of Integers. We're adding couple of Integers to the LinkedList object using add() method calls per element. LinkedList size is printed, linkedList is printed and using remove() method, first element is removed. Then size and linkedList is printed again.
package com.tutorialspoint; import java.util.LinkedList; public class LinkedListDemo { public static void main(String[] args) { // create an empty linked list LinkedList<Integer> linkedList = new LinkedList<>(); // use add() method to add elements in the linkedList linkedList.add(20); linkedList.add(15); linkedList.add(30); linkedList.add(45); System.out.println("Size of list: " + linkedList.size()); // let us print all the elements available in list again System.out.println("LinkedList = " + linkedList); // Removes first element linkedList.remove(); System.out.println("Now, Size of list: " + linkedList.size()); // let us print all the elements available in list again System.out.println("LinkedList = " + linkedList); } }Output
Let us compile and run the above program, this will produce the following result −
Size of list: 4 LinkedList = [20, 15, 30, 45] Now, Size of list: 3 LinkedList = [15, 30, 45]Removing an Element from a LinkedList of Strings Example
The following example shows the usage of Java LinkedList remove(object) method. We're creating a LinkedList of String. We're adding couple of Strings to the LinkedList object using add() method calls per element. LinkedList size is printed, linkedList is printed and using remove(object) method, an element is removed. Then size and linkedList is printed again.
package com.tutorialspoint; import java.util.LinkedList; public class LinkedListDemo { public static void main(String[] args) { // create an empty linked list LinkedList<String> linkedList = new LinkedList<>(); // use add() method to add elements in the linkedList linkedList.add("A"); linkedList.add("B"); linkedList.add("C"); linkedList.add("D"); System.out.println("Size of list: " + linkedList.size()); // let us print all the elements available in list again System.out.println("LinkedList = " + linkedList); // Removes element B linkedList.remove("B"); System.out.println("Now, Size of list: " + linkedList.size()); // let us print all the elements available in list again System.out.println("LinkedList = " + linkedList); } }Output
Let us compile and run the above program, this will produce the following result −
Size of list: 4 LinkedList = [A, B, C, D] Now, Size of list: 3 LinkedList = [A, C, D]Removing an Element from a LinkedList of Objects Example
The following example shows the usage of Java LinkedList remove(index) method. We're creating a LinkedList of Student objects. We're adding couple of Students to the LinkedList object using add() method calls per element. LinkedList size is printed, linkedList is printed and using remove(index) method, an element is removed. Then size and linkedList is printed again.
package com.tutorialspoint; import java.util.LinkedList; public class LinkedListDemo { public static void main(String[] args) { // create an empty linked list LinkedList<Student> linkedList = new LinkedList<>(); // use add() method to add elements in the linkedList linkedList.add(new Student(1, "Julie")); linkedList.add(new Student(2, "Robert")); linkedList.add(new Student(3, "Adam")); System.out.println("Size of list: " + linkedList.size()); // let us print all the elements available in list again System.out.println("LinkedList = " + linkedList); // Removes element at 3rd position linkedList.remove(2); System.out.println("Now, Size of list: " + linkedList.size()); // let us print all the elements available in list again System.out.println("LinkedList = " + linkedList); } } 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 + " ]"; } @Override public boolean equals(Object obj) { Student s = (Student)obj; return this.rollNo == s.rollNo && this.name.equalsIgnoreCase(s.name); } }Output
Let us compile and run the above program, this will produce the following result −
Size of list: 3 LinkedList = [[ 1, Julie ], [ 2, Robert ], [ 3, Adam ]] Now, Size of list: 2 LinkedList = [[ 1, Julie ], [ 2, Robert ]]
