Add or insert an element to ArrayList using Java ListIterator Example

elements of ArrayList using Java ListIterator.

Use void add(Object o) method of ListIterator to add or insert an element to List.
It adds an element just before the element that would have been returned by next
method call and after the element that would have returned by previous call.

add method can throw UnsupportedOperationException if add operation
is not supported by this ListIterator.
Please also note that, sebsequent call to previous method after adding
an element, would return the newly added element.

Output would be
