Type Parameters:
  `E` - the type of elements held in this collection

public class LinkedList<E> extends AbstractSequentialList<E> implements List<E>, Deque<E>, Cloneable, Serializable
Doubly-linked list implementation of the `List` and `Deque` interfaces. Implements all optional list operations, and permits all elements (including `null`).

All of the operations perform as could be expected for a doubly-linked list. Operations that index into the list will traverse the list from the beginning or the end, whichever is closer to the specified index.

Note that this implementation is not synchronized. If multiple threads access a linked list concurrently, and at least one of the threads modifies the list structurally, it must be synchronized externally. (A structural modification is any operation that adds or deletes one or more elements; merely setting the value of an element is not a structural modification.) This is typically accomplished by synchronizing on some object that naturally encapsulates the list. If no such object exists, the list should be "wrapped" using the `Collections.synchronizedList` method. This is best done at creation time, to prevent accidental unsynchronized access to the list:

       List list = Collections.synchronizedList(new LinkedList(...));

The iterators returned by this class's `iterator` and `listIterator` methods are fail-fast: if the list is structurally modified at any time after the iterator is created, in any way except through the Iterator's own `remove` or `add` methods, the iterator will throw a `ConcurrentModificationException`. Thus, in the face of concurrent modification, the iterator fails quickly and cleanly, rather than risking arbitrary, non-deterministic behavior at an undetermined time in the future.

Note that the fail-fast behavior of an iterator cannot be guaranteed as it is, generally speaking, impossible to make any hard guarantees in the presence of unsynchronized concurrent modification. Fail-fast iterators throw `ConcurrentModificationException` on a best-effort basis. Therefore, it would be wrong to write a program that depended on this exception for its correctness: the fail-fast behavior of iterators should be used only to detect bugs.

This class is a member of the Java Collections Framework.

### listIterator

public ListIterator<E> listIterator(int index)
Returns a list-iterator of the elements in this list (in proper sequence), starting at the specified position in the list. Obeys the general contract of `List.listIterator(int)`.

The list-iterator is fail-fast: if the list is structurally modified at any time after the Iterator is created, in any way except through the list-iterator's own `remove` or `add` methods, the list-iterator will throw a `ConcurrentModificationException`. Thus, in the face of concurrent modification, the iterator fails quickly and cleanly, rather than risking arbitrary, non-deterministic behavior at an undetermined time in the future.

Specified by:
  `listIterator` in interface `List<E>`
Specified by:
  `listIterator` in class `AbstractSequentialList<E>`
Parameters:
  `index` - index of the first element to be returned from the list-iterator (by a call to `next`)
Returns:
  a ListIterator of the elements in this list (in proper sequence), starting at the specified position in the list
Throws:
  `IndexOutOfBoundsException` - if the index is out of range (`index < 0 || index > size()`)
See Also:
  - `List.listIterator(int)`

### descendingIterator

Description copied from interface: `Deque`
Returns an iterator over the elements in this deque in reverse sequential order. The elements will be returned in order from last (tail) to first (head).

Specified by:
  `descendingIterator` in interface `Deque<E>`
Returns:
  an iterator over the elements in this deque in reverse sequence
Since:
  1.6

### clone

public Object clone()
Returns a shallow copy of this `LinkedList`. (The elements themselves are not cloned.)

Overrides:
  `clone` in class `Object`
Returns:
  a shallow copy of this `LinkedList` instance
See Also:
  - `Cloneable`

### toArray

public Object[] toArray()
Returns an array containing all of the elements in this list in proper sequence (from first to last element).

The returned array will be "safe" in that no references to it are maintained by this list. (In other words, this method must allocate a new array). The caller is thus free to modify the returned array.

This method acts as bridge between array-based and collection-based APIs.

Specified by:
  `toArray` in interface `Collection<E>`
Specified by:
  `toArray` in interface `List<E>`
Overrides:
  `toArray` in class `AbstractCollection<E>`
Returns:
  an array containing all of the elements in this list in proper sequence
See Also:
  - `Arrays.asList(Object[])`

### toArray

public <T> T[] toArray(T[] a)
Returns an array containing all of the elements in this list in proper sequence (from first to last element); the runtime type of the returned array is that of the specified array. If the list fits in the specified array, it is returned therein. Otherwise, a new array is allocated with the runtime type of the specified array and the size of this list.

If the list fits in the specified array with room to spare (i.e., the array has more elements than the list), the element in the array immediately following the end of the list is set to `null`. (This is useful in determining the length of the list only if the caller knows that the list does not contain any null elements.)

Like the `toArray()` method, this method acts as bridge between array-based and collection-based APIs. Further, this method allows precise control over the runtime type of the output array, and may, under certain circumstances, be used to save allocation costs.

Suppose `x` is a list known to contain only strings. The following code can be used to dump the list into a newly allocated array of `String`:

         String[] y = x.toArray(new String[0]);

Note that `toArray(new Object[0])` is identical in function to `toArray()`.

Specified by:
  `toArray` in interface `Collection<E>`
Specified by:
  `toArray` in interface `List<E>`
Overrides:
  `toArray` in class `AbstractCollection<E>`
Type Parameters:
  `T` - the component type of the array to contain the collection
Parameters:
  `a` - the array into which the elements of the list are to be stored, if it is big enough; otherwise, a new array of the same runtime type is allocated for this purpose.
Returns:
  an array containing the elements of the list
Throws:
  `ArrayStoreException` - if the runtime type of the specified array is not a supertype of the runtime type of every element in this list
  `NullPointerException` - if the specified array is null

### spliterator

public Spliterator<E> spliterator()
Creates a late-binding and fail-fast `Spliterator` over the elements in this list.

The `Spliterator` reports `Spliterator.SIZED` and `Spliterator.ORDERED`. Overriding implementations should document the reporting of additional characteristic values.

Specified by:
  `spliterator` in interface `Collection<E>`
Specified by:
  `spliterator` in interface `Iterable<E>`
Specified by:
  `spliterator` in interface `List<E>`
Implementation Note:
  The `Spliterator` additionally reports `Spliterator.SUBSIZED` and implements `trySplit` to permit limited parallelism..
Returns:
  a `Spliterator` over the elements in this list
Since:
  1.8

### reversed

public LinkedList<E> reversed()
Returns a reverse-ordered view of this collection. The encounter order of elements in the returned view is the inverse of the encounter order of elements in this collection. The reverse ordering affects all order-sensitive operations, including those on the view collections of the returned view. If the collection implementation permits modifications to this view, the modifications "write through" to the underlying collection. Changes to the underlying collection might or might not be visible in this reversed view, depending upon the implementation.

Modifications to the reversed view are permitted and will be propagated to this list. In addition, modifications to this list will be visible in the reversed view.

Specified by:
  `reversed` in interface `Deque<E>`
Specified by:
  `reversed` in interface `List<E>`
