remove method

@override bool remove(Object? element)

Removes the first occurrence of value from this list.

Returns true if value was in the list, false otherwise. The list must be growable.

final parts = <String>['head', 'shoulders', 'knees', 'toes'];
final retVal = parts.remove('head'); // true
print(parts); // [shoulders, knees, toes]

The method has no effect if value was not in the list.

final parts = <String>['shoulders', 'knees', 'toes'];
// Note: 'head' has already been removed.
final retVal = parts.remove('head'); // false
print(parts); // [shoulders, knees, toes]

Implementation

@override
bool remove(Object? element) {
  if (element is! Element) return false;
  for (var i = 0; i < length; i++) {
    final indexElement = this[i];
    if (identical(indexElement, element)) {
      indexElement.remove();
      return true;
    }
  }
  return false;
}
