How to merge two lists (List) in Java? Simple and efficient ways
Hello everyone! I'm a beginner in Java and I have a seemingly simple task. I have two lists (ArrayList) that contain strings. For example, the first list is the names of employees from department A, and the second is the names from department B. I need to merge them into one common list for further processing (for example, to display on the screen or pass to another method).
Here's how I tried to do it:
```java
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;
public class Main {
public static void main(String[] args) {
List listA = new ArrayList<>();
listA.add("Alice");
listA.add("Bob");
List listB = new ArrayList<>();
listB.add("Charlie");
listB.add("David");
// Trying to merge, but the compiler complains
```
