List<Animal> animals

这是一个 Java 语言中的泛型声明，它表示一个名为 "animals" 的 List（列表），其中包含 Animal 类型的对象。List 是一种动态数组，可以存储多个对象，并且可以动态添加或删除元素。在这种情况下，Animal 是一个类或接口类型，它可能具有一些属性和方法，表示动物的共性特征。例如，可以将 Dog、Cat 和 Bird 类的对象添加到该列表中，因为它们都是 Animal 类的子类或实现类。

List<Animal> animals怎么添加对象

你可以使用 `animals.add(animalObj)` 方法来向 `List<Animal> animals` 中添加 `Animal` 对象。例如：

List<Animal> animals = new ArrayList<>();
Animal animalObj = new Animal();
animals.add(animalObj);

你也可以直接在添加时创建新的 `Animal` 对象。例如：

List<Animal> animals = new ArrayList<>();
animals.add(new Animal());

需要注意的是，你需要先 `import` `Animal` 类，或者使用全限定名来引用该类。例如：

import com.example.Animal;

List<Animal> animals = new ArrayList<>();
animals.add(new Animal());

或者：

List<com.example.Animal> animals = new ArrayList<>();
animals.add(new com.example.Animal());

Suppose that for some interface type I, the method signature was rewritten as follows: void printAll(List<? extends I> list); Explain, without simply reusing the word “extends”, what property this new signature now enforces upon the parameters with which the method printAll is called. Include in your answer a possible situation in which this restriction will be useful by suggesting a possible interface I.

The new method signature, void printAll(List<? extends I> list), enforces a restriction on the type of objects that can be passed as arguments to the method. Specifically, the method can only accept a List of objects that are either of type I or its subtypes.

This restriction can be useful in situations where you want to ensure that the objects in the List are all of a certain type or its subtypes. For example, suppose you have an interface I called Animal, which has two subtypes: Cat and Dog. You could write a method that accepts a List of either Cats or Dogs:

void printAll(List<? extends Animal> list) {
  for (Animal animal : list) {
    System.out.println(animal.getName());
  }
}

This method will only accept a List of Cats or Dogs, but not a List of other Animals such as Birds. This ensures that the method can only be called with a List of the appropriate type, preventing potential errors at runtime.
