When I create array of LinkedList (of Integers) like this,

new LinkedList<Integer>[V];

it gives me error saying "Generic Array creation"

but when I create array like this

new LinkedList[V];

it works fine.

What is this error and what's going wrong here ?

  • @SubhasishBhattacharjee you can create an array with a generic element type: it just has to be reifiable, e.g. new ArrayList<?>[V] is allowed. Commented Nov 13, 2018 at 17:22
