List in Dart
Lists can be useful for:
- Storing data about a list of things, such as a shopping list, a to-do list, or a contact list;
- Storing data about a sequence of events, such as a history list or a list of steps that need to be taken to complete a task.
Syntax
Let's look at the scheme of creating a List
:
List<elements_type> list_name = [element_1, element_2];
List
: command to create a list;<elements_type>
: the data type for values will be stored in the middle of the list;list_name
: list name;[element_1, element_2]
: commas (,
) separate the list elements.
Example
Example of creating a List with int
values:
main.dart
1List<int> numbers = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5];
List
of integer numbers;<int>
type elements fromList
.
Adding Items
Let's add a value to the already existing list of numbers.
main.dart
123456void main() { List<int> numbers = [111, 22, 32]; print(numbers); // Output [111, 22, 32] numbers.add(6); // Adding an item to a list print(numbers); // Output [111, 22, 32, 6] }
numbers.add(6);
Let's break down the new command in detail:
numbers
: list name;add()
: command that adds elements to a list;6
: the value we want to add to the list.
Deleting Items
list_name.remove(element)
Let's break down the new command in detail:
numbers
: list name;remove()
: command that removes the first occurrence of the specified item in the list;element
: the value we want to add to the list.
main.dart
123456void main() { List<int> numbers = [11, 22, 23]; print(numbers); // [11, 22, 23] numbers.remove(22); print(numbers); // [11, 23] }
We removed 22
from the List
We heva a List
:
List<bool> items = [true, false];
