Answer 1

Not sure if the accepted answer would work, as internally it would be trying to again modify the same list. A cleaner approach would be to maintain a 'deletion' list, and keep adding elements to that list within the loop. Once we are ready with the deletion list, they can be removed after the loop. This should work in all cases where we do not need the deleted element to be reprocessed. If yes, then the existing deletion list can be checked for presence of that element.

    List list = new ArrayList();
    List listRemove = new ArrayList();

    list.add("1");
    list.add("2");
    list.add("3");
    list.add("4");
    list.add("5");
    list.add("6");
    list.add("7");
    list.add("8");

    System.out.println("list : " + list);

    for (String i : list) {
        if (i.equals("2")) {
            listRemove.add(i);
        }
    }
    list.removeAll(listRemove);
    System.out.println("updated list: " + list);
