Java / Operators
Explain Diamond Operator in Java.
<> denotes the diamond operator. Purpose of the diamond operator is to simplify instantiation of generic classes.
For example, see the below.
List<Integer> myList = new ArrayList<Integer>(); //with the diamond operator we can write as below easily. List<Integer> myList = new ArrayList<>();
The Diamond Operator reduces some of Java's verbosity surrounding generics by having the compiler infer parameter types for constructors of generic classes.
