Thread: ArrayList Help

I am sort of a hole on how to add miles and gas to the arraylist. Can i do something like this

ArrayList<List> auto = new ArrayList<List>(6732, 83942, "Crown Victoria")

is that a good start
Below holds my code

 
 
public class Garage {
 
	private String model;
	private int milesDriven;
	private int GallonsGas;
 
	public Garage(String ModelCar, int MilesDrove, int AmtGallonsGas)
	{
		model= ModelCar;
		milesDriven= MilesDrove;
		GallonsGas= AmtGallonsGas;
	}
 
	public String getModelCar()
	{
		String returnModelCar= model;
		return returnModelCar;
	}
 
	public int getMilesDrove()
	{
		int returnMilesDrove= milesDriven;
		return returnMilesDrove;
	}
 
	public int getAmtGallonsGas()
	{
		int returnAmtGallonsGas= GallonsGas;
		return returnAmtGallonsGas;
	}
 
 
}

Study the ArrayList API. First note there is not a constructor that accepts the format you are trying to create. Seems to me you wish to create a new Garage object, then add that to the ArrayList (parametized with Garage).

ArrayList<Garage> list = new ArrayList<Garage>();
list.add(new Garage(...parameters to create a new garage go here...));

No, but you could create 3 parallel array lists that store them.

Could be done this way as well, but java is object oriented and if those data pieces should be associated with one another, creating a single object to add to the list would be more appropriate.
