Kotlin: How to work with List casts: Unchecked Cast: kotlin.collections.List

Question

I want to write a function that returns every item in a List that is not the first or the last item (a via point). The function gets a generic List<*&g

Answer 1

To improve @hotkey's answer here's my solution:

val waypointList = list.filterIsInstance().takeIf { it.size == list.size }

This gives you the List if all the items can be casted, null otherwise.
