Hi' I want tell you some basic points   The difference is the internal data structure used to store the objects. An ArrayList will use a system array (like Object[] ) and resize it when needed. On the other hand a LinkedList will use an object that contains the data and a pointer to the next and previous objects in the list .  is used to make generic type.
