Java AbstractList.contains() is a method in the Java AbstractList class that checks if the list contains a specific element. It uses the Java equals() method to compare elements in the list. Introduced in Java 1997 with Java 1.2, contains() is commonly used in list operations to verify the presence of an element without needing to manually iterate over the entire list.
