Intersection and union of ArrayLists in Java

Question

Are there any methods to do so? I was looking but couldn\'t find any.

Another question: I need these methods so I can filter files. Some are AND filter

Answer 1

I was also working on the similar situation and reached here searching for help. Ended up finding my own solution for Arrays. ArrayList AbsentDates = new ArrayList(); // Will Store Array1-Array2

Note : Posting this if it can help someone reaching this page for help.

ArrayList AbsentDates = new ArrayList();//This Array will store difference
      public void AbsentDays() {
            findDates("April", "2017");//Array one with dates in Month April 2017
            findPresentDays();//Array two carrying some dates which are subset of Dates in Month April 2017

            for (int i = 0; i < Dates.size(); i++) {

                for (int j = 0; j < PresentDates.size(); j++) {

                    if (Dates.get(i).equals(PresentDates.get(j))) {

                        Dates.remove(i);
                    }               

                }              
                AbsentDates = Dates;   
            }
            System.out.println(AbsentDates );
        }
