Question

I have two list X,Y.

Which are lists of Strings .

there is a possibility to have the two lists different sizes .

If both lists are of same size of 2 then i can procedd like

   for (int i =0;  i<anyList.size(); i++){
     system.out.printLn(X(i) +" "+Y(i));
  }

example result  :

stringX1 stringY1 
stringX2 stringY2

how can i handle the loop which have different sizes

example result should be look like this

example result :

    stringX1 stringY1 
    stringX2 stringY2
    stringX3
    stringX4

Answer 1

for (int i =0;  i<max(X.size(),Y.size()); i++){
  if(i<X.size() && i<Y.size()) {
    print(X.get(i) + " " + Y.get(i));
  } else if(i<Y.size()) {
    print(Y.get(i));
  } else {
    print(X.get(i));
  }
}

Programming a max(int, int) and print(String) method shouldn’t be to hard.
