Hi all, does anyone know what’s the default max size of a MutableList?

[Sam]

Default size is obviously zero, or however many items you put in it — but default capacity is most often 10 (e.g. https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/util/ArrayList.html#ArrayList--) It shouldn’t normally be important, though…

[Jose Garcia]

sorry I meant max capacity

[Sam]

The max size is somewhat badly defined but is constrained by the max size of the underlying array, which will be close to Int.MAX_VALUE (which is about 2 billion)

Thanks Sam!
