在标准Java库中,找出两个list是否包含完全相同的元素的最简单方法是什么?

这两个list是否为相同实例并不重要,这两个list的类型参数是否不同也不重要。

e.g.

List list1
List<String> list2; 
// ... construct etc

list1.add("A");
list2.add("A"); 
// the function, given these two lists, should return true

我知道可能有什么东西在盯着我的脸:-)


编辑:为了澄清,我正在寻找完全相同的元素和元素的数量,按顺序。

我的解决方案适用于不关心列表中的顺序的情况——换句话说:具有相同元素但顺序不同的列表将被认为具有相同的内容。

示例:["word1", "word2"]和["word2", "word1"]被认为内容相同。

我已经谈到了订购,我还需要说一些关于副本的事情。列表需要具有相同数量的元素才能被认为是相等的。

例如:["word1"]和["word1", "word1"]被认为不具有相同的内容。

我的解决方案:

public class ListUtil {

    public static <T> boolean hasSameContents(List<T> firstList, List<T> secondList) {      
        if (firstList == secondList) { // same object
            return true;
        }
        if (firstList != null && secondList != null) {
            if (firstList.isEmpty() && secondList.isEmpty()) {
                return true;
            }
            if (firstList.size() != secondList.size()) {
                return false;
            }
            List<T> tmpSecondList = new ArrayList<>(secondList);
            Object currFirstObject = null;
            for (int i=1 ; i<=firstList.size() ; i++) {
                currFirstObject = firstList.get(i-1);
                boolean removed = tmpSecondList.remove(currFirstObject);
                if (!removed) {
                    return false;
                }
                if (i != firstList.size()) { // Not the last element
                    if (tmpSecondList.isEmpty()) {
                        return false;
                    }
                }
            }
            if (tmpSecondList.isEmpty()) {
                return true;
            }
        }
        return false;
    }
}

我用Strings进行了测试,如下所示:

@Test public void testHasSameContents() throws Exception { // comparing with same list => no duplicate elements Assert.isTrue(ListUtil.hasSameContents(List.of("one", "two", "three"), List.of("one", "two", "three"))); // comparing with same list => duplicate elements Assert.isTrue(ListUtil.hasSameContents(List.of("one", "two", "three", "one"), List.of("one", "two", "three", "one"))); // compare with disordered list => no duplicate elements Assert.isTrue(ListUtil.hasSameContents(List.of("one", "two", "three"), List.of("three", "two", "one"))); // compare with disordered list => duplicate elements Assert.isTrue(ListUtil.hasSameContents(List.of("one", "two", "three", "one"), List.of("three", "two", "one", "one"))); // comparing with different list => same size, no duplicate elements Assert.isFalse(ListUtil.hasSameContents(List.of("one", "two", "three"), List.of("four", "five", "six"))); // comparing with different list => same size, duplicate elements Assert.isFalse(ListUtil.hasSameContents(List.of("one", "two", "two"), List.of("one", "two", "three"))); Assert.isFalse(ListUtil.hasSameContents(List.of("one", "two", "three"), List.of("one", "two", "two"))); // comparing with different list => different size, no duplicate elements Assert.isFalse(ListUtil.hasSameContents(List.of("one", "two", "three", "four"), List.of("one", "two", "three"))); Assert.isFalse(ListUtil.hasSameContents(List.of("one", "two", "three"), List.of("one", "two", "three", "four"))); // comparing with different list => different sizes, duplicate elements Assert.isFalse(ListUtil.hasSameContents(List.of("one", "two", "three", "one"), List.of("one", "two", "three"))); Assert.isFalse(ListUtil.hasSameContents(List.of("one", "two", "three"), List.of("one", "two", "three", "one"))); }

其他回答

如果您正在使用(或乐于使用)Apache Commons Collections,您可以使用CollectionUtils。isEqualCollection“如果给定集合包含完全相同的元素和完全相同的基数,则返回true。”

下面是一种比较两个集合的方法,它考虑了其中的重复。因此,集合大小不一定相同。因此,它会在'actual'中寻找'expected':

    private static <T> boolean containsAllExpected(Collection<T> actual, Collection<T> expected) {
        if (actual == null && expected == null) {
            return true;
        }
        if (actual == null || expected == null) {
            return false;
        }
        Collection<T> a = new ArrayList<>(actual);
        Collection<T> e = new ArrayList<>(expected);

        Iterator<T> ei = e.iterator();
        while (ei.hasNext()) {
            T item = ei.next();
            if (a.contains(item)) {
                ei.remove();
                a.remove(item);
            } else {
                return false;
            }
        }

        return true;
    }

!集合。disjoint(Collection1, Collection2)如果它们有相同的元素,则返回true

很晚才加入这个派对,但想添加这个空安全检查:

Objects.equals(list1, list2)

这应该在O(n)时间内完成。

public static <T> boolean isEqualCollection(Collection<T> c1, Collection<T> c2){
    if(nonNull(c1) && nonNull(c2)){
        Map<T, Long> c1Counts = c1.stream().collect(Collectors.groupingBy(i -> i, Collectors.counting()));
        for(T item : c2) {
            Long count  = c1Counts.getOrDefault(item, 0L);
            if(count.equals(0L)){
                return false;
            } else {
                c1Counts.put(item, count - 1L);
            }
        }
        return true;
    }
    return isNull(c1) && isNull(c2);
}
