Check if a value exists in ArrayList

by

Just use ArrayList.contains(desiredElement). For example, if you’re looking for the conta1 account from your example, you could use something like:

if (lista.contains(conta1)) {
    System.out.println("Account found");
} else {
    System.out.println("Account not found");
}

Edit:
Note that in order for this to work, you will need to properly override the equals() and hashCode() methods. If you are using Eclipse IDE, then you can have these methods generated by first opening the source file for your CurrentAccount object and the selecting Source > Generate hashCode() and equals()...
