几乎总是 List 优于 ArrayList 因为，例如，List 可以翻译成LinkedList 不会影响代码库的其余部分.

Almost always List is preferred over ArrayList because, for instance, List can be translated into a LinkedList without affecting the rest of the codebase.

如果使用 ArrayList 而不是 List，则很难将 ArrayList 实现更改为 LinkedList因为在代码库中使用了 ArrayList 特定方法，这也需要重组.

If one used ArrayList instead of List, it's hard to change the ArrayList implementation into a LinkedList one because ArrayList specific methods have been used in the codebase that would also require restructuring.

您可能从 ArrayList 开始，但很快就会发现另一个实现是更合适的选择.

You may start with an ArrayList, but soon after discover that another implementation is the more appropriate choice.
