Mar 18, 2014 at 15:21 comment added Corbin @ChrisW I'm afraid I just agree. Lately linked list have become quite a bore. Hopefully though, people would implement more interesting containers, and, by the end of April, maybe the Great Linked List Surge of March will have been forgotten.
Mar 18, 2014 at 14:31 comment added ChrisW "It's just fun to implement standard containers :)." -- IMHO it has become no longer a huge amount of fun to review standard containers: how many "linked list" implementations do you want to review?
Mar 15, 2014 at 20:36 comment added Corbin @skiwi It could be, but it's not required to meet the criteria of the challenge. In general though, unless someone is already very familiar with non-concurrent containers, I would discourage the concurrent route. Performant concurrent containers can get very tricky very quickly.
Mar 15, 2014 at 20:30 comment added skiwi @PeterTaylor For Java, I think that you want to implement the interface, while mimicking the design of the concrete implementation. So you could be mimicking ArrayList, while implementing the List interface.
Mar 15, 2014 at 20:26 comment added skiwi Should concurrency be a consideration for this challenge?
Mar 11, 2014 at 18:37 comment added Corbin @PeterTaylor It was just to be consistent with the C++ suggestions since ArrayList and HashMap are more or less the Java analogues of std::vector and std::unordered_map. In an actual implementation, the interface would be implemented. It's just that the implementation might act as one of those concrete classes. (And don't forget that the rules are pretty open -- any container can be implemented)
Mar 11, 2014 at 18:35 comment added Corbin @Mat'sMug Correct.
Mar 11, 2014 at 12:28 comment added Peter Taylor Is it intentional that the Java suggestions are classes rather than interfaces (java.util.List, java.util.Map)?
Mar 11, 2014 at 2:40 comment added Mathieu Guindon So in C# that would be implementing a Stack<T> or a Queue<T>, or a List<T>, or whatever?
