public interface ShortBidirectionalIterator
extends ShortIterator, BidirectionalIterator

Method Detail

previousShort

public short previousShort()
Returns the previous element as a primitive type.

Returns:
the previous element from the collection.
See Also:
ListIterator.previous()

back

public int back(int n)
Moves back for the given number of elements.

The effect of this call is exactly the same as that of calling BidirectionalIterator.previous() for n times (possibly stopping if BidirectionalIterator.hasPrevious() becomes false).

Parameters:
n - the number of elements to skip back.
Returns:
the number of elements actually skipped.

Iterator.next()
