Question

I have been working on and off with Java/Python. Now in this situation I want to check if the element is in the list and do stuff…

Python says:

if "a" in ["a", "b", "c"]:
    print "It's there!"

Does Java provide any one liner for this rather than creating ArrayList / Set or similar data structure in steps and adding elements to it?

Thanks.

Use Arrays.asList:

if( Arrays.asList("a","b","c").contains("a") )
