thanks to u all
im using at the moment ArrayList and sorting it using collections.sort(), but i just want to make sure that i chose the right one.
other than the 4 sorting orders that i have, ive got find(person) method, and there, i used itratr.next() to go through the list and find the element.. but doesnt that mean it will start from the beginning anyway like it is with LinkedList?
im actually confused between them 2!!! these are the methods i have:
sortByName()
sortBySurname()
sortByAge()
SortByID()
find(person)
add(person) (<---- makes a call to find!)
remove(person)
so will i be ok with ArrayList?
thanks
