Hi, is there some collection api that trims a mutable list to a size? I know take but that creates a new list

You can't trim a MutableList (because abstraction, what does trim mean for a linked list?) but you can trim an ArrayList.

What? Just remove the last elements, right?

I was thinking about making capacity == length.

problem was the iterator mostly and the concurrent modification exception, so ill assume ArrayList instead of mutablelist and just iterate via indices from end backwards, should work, thanks

No the proper solution is get a sublist and clear() that.
