Hello, coding rookie! Today, we're venturing into Kotlin's vast terrain to unravel a fundamental feature: Lists! Much like a grocery list or a to-do list, Kotlin allows us to create a list of items. With our focus set on understanding Lists, we're prepared for an adventure into the land of Kotlin!
Have you ever created a to-do list? It organizes and stores your tasks, doesn't it? Kotlin provides the same functionality with Lists! Kotlin's Lists can store multiple items (of either similar or various types) similar to this to-do list:
Depending on the requirements, Lists can be mutable (modifiable using mutableListOf()
) or immutable (non-modifiable with listOf()
).
To create a list in Kotlin, we require the listOf()
(for an immutable list) or the mutableListOf()
(for a mutable list) function. Let's see how:
In this context, add()
is a method that allows us to add more elements to a mutable list.
