# Java ArrayList get() Method
[ Java ArrayList](#)
The get() method retrieves an element from the dynamic array using its index value.
The syntax for the get() method is:
arraylist.get(int index)
**Note:** arraylist is an object of the ArrayList class.
**Parameter Description:**
* index - The index value.
### Return Value
Returns the element at the specified index in the dynamic array.
If the index value is out of range, an IndexOutOfBoundsException is thrown.
### Example
Using the get() method with a String type array:
## Example
import java.util.ArrayList;
class Main {
public static void main(String[] args){
// Create an array
ArrayList sites =new ArrayList();
sites.add("Google");
sites.add("");
sites.add("Taobao");
System.out.println("Website list: "+ sites);
// Get the element at index 1
String element = sites.get(1);
System.out.println("Element at index 1: "+ element);
}
}
The output of the above program is:
Website list: [Google, , Taobao]Element at index 1:
In the example above, we created an array named `sites` and used the get() method to retrieve the element at index 1.
Using the get() method with an Integer type dynamic array:
## Example
import java.util.ArrayList;
class Main {
public static void main(String[] args){
// Create an array
ArrayList numbers =new ArrayList();
// Insert elements into the array
numbers.add(22);
numbers.add(13);
numbers.add(35);
System.out.println("Numbers ArrayList: "+ numbers);
// Return the element at index 2
int element = numbers.get(2);
System.out.println("Element at index 2: "+ element);
}
}
The output of the above program is:
Numbers ArrayList: [22, 13, 35]Element at index 2: 35
In the example above, the get() method is used to access the element at index 2.
**Note:** We can also use the indexOf() method to return the index of an element in the ArrayList. For more information, visit [Java ArrayList indexOf()](#).
