I am making a Linked List of Integers

LinkedList<Integer> l1 = new LinkedList<Integer>();
l1.add(1);
l1.add(2);
l1.add(3);

I want to remove 2nd entry i.e 2 from my list, So I used

l1.remove(2);

But actually, I found 3rd entry i.e 3 was removed. So remove(int index) was run by Java but I wanted remove(Object o) to run.

How to use remove(Object o) here ?

You're passing in `int` parameters... `int` is a primitive. You probably need to box it to an `Integer` object. – Mage Xy Oct 02 '15 at 15:09
