Remove an element from ArrayList using Java ListIterator Example
This Java Example shows how to remove an element while traversing through
elements of ArrayList using Java ListIterator.

Use void remove() method of ListIterator to remove an element from List.
It removes the last element returned by next or previous methods.
Please note that, remove method removes the element from underlying list.

/*
Remove method can throw UnsupportedOperationException if remove operation
is not supported by this ListIterator.
In addition to that, it can also throw IllegalStateException if remove is
called before call of neither previous nor next methods or after the last
call of next or previous methods.

Output would be
After removing 2, ArrayList contains
