This java example shows how to get first and last element from Java LinkedList using getFirst and getLast methods.


import java.util.LinkedList;

public class GetFirstAndLastElementLinkedListExample {

 public static void main(String[] args) {

  // create LinkedList object
  LinkedList lList = new LinkedList();

  // add elements to LinkedList

  lList.add("1");
  lList.add("2");
  lList.add("3");
  lList.add("4");
  lList.add("5");

  /**
   * To get first element from Java LinkedList, use Object getFirst()
   * method.
   * 
   * This method returns first element stored in LinkedList.
   **/

  System.out.println("First element of LinkedList is : "
    + lList.getFirst());

  /*
   * To get last element from Java LinkedList, use Object getLast()
   * method.
   * 
   * This method returns last element stored in LinkedList.
   */

  System.out
    .println("Last element of LinkedList is : " + lList.getLast());
