What's wrong with the rotation of my lists?

In that part of the code I only want to rotate one of the list, but both had been rotated.



for(int i = 0; i< 1000000000; i++) 
Collections.rotate(newList, positions);
System.out.println("New list: "+newList);
System.out.println("Normal list: "+list);
if(dosListasIguales(list, newList))
movimientos = i;
break;

    How did you create newList? If you did something like List newList = list then they are the same List.

    We cannot tell from what you have presented, though it seems that the two lists in question must be aliased somehow. Present a Minimal, Complete, and Verifiable example demonstrating the problem if you want a confident answer.

It seems you have copied reference of list to newList somewhere. So any changes in the newList affects list.



Use this for copying:



List<Integer> newList = new ArrayList<Integer>(list);


instead of:



List<Integer> newList = list;

  • @CarlosCastañodelCastillo List<Integer> newList = list; is the reference copying point. You should useList<Integer> newList = new ArrayList<Integer>(list);
