Is ArrayList indexOf complexity N?
arraylist, java, time-complexity
Solution
Source Java API
Yes,Complexity is O(N).
The size, isEmpty, get, set, iterator, and listIterator operations run in constant time. The add operation runs in amortized constant time, that is, adding n elements requires O(n) time. All of the other operations run in linear time (roughly speaking). The constant factor is low compared to that for the LinkedList implementation.
Problem
I have N numbers in arraylist. To get the `indexOf`, arraylist will have to iterate maximum N times, so complexity is `O(N)`, is that correct?
