How to add an element at a specific index in Vector
We can use the add(index, element) method to add an element at a specific index. This will add the element to the passed index. When calling add(index, element), the element is added at the index, and the elements already present at the index are moved one step right.
Vectoris a growable array of objects. Elements are mapped to an index.
Syntax
public void add(int index, E element);
The index argument denotes the index at which the new element should be added. The index should be greater than or equal to 0 and less than the size of the vector. Any other index value will result in: ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException.
index>= 0 &&index<vectorSize
Code
import java.util.Vector;
class VectorAddExample {
public static void main( String args[] ) {
// Creating Vector
Vector<Integer> vector = new Vector<>();
// add elememts
vector.add(1);
vector.add(3);
// Print vector
System.out.println("The Vector is: " + vector);
int index = 1;
int element = 2;
System.out.println("Adding element :" + element + " at index :" +index);
vector.add(index, element);
// Printing the new vector
System.out.println("The Vector is: " + vector);
}
}Explanation
In the code above, we create a Vector object and add elements 1,3 to the vector object. Then, we use the code below to add the element 2 to the index 1. Now, the vector will be 1,2,3.
vector.add(1, 2);
