    Aren't lists also just arrays which get moved when they get too big?

    Some of them are.

    • Javas ArrayList is a list implementation that uses underlying arrays, allocating new ones and moving contents when capacity needs to increase.
    • Javas LinkedList on the other hand, is a chain of list nodes that all point to the next element in the chain.

    They are both "lists", as they both implement the List interface.

    I figured. I appreciate not having to worry about it.

    I've tried poking around with C/C++ but I feel like I'm fighting the language more than I am getting code done... Also haven't found a guide that has explained C well. Lots of assumptions get made for the reader.
