请问这样一个类到底是什么意思？我们的作业要求完成这个类。在其他地方调用该类的方法，传的参数是一系列数字，但是搞不明白这个Object对象的属性到底能存什么。能存一个链表？各位大虾帮助，谢谢了~~

要完成这个类，没说功能吗？

在其他类中调用这个类的方法public static PTList cons(Object hd, PTList tl)，但实际上传入进来的是一系列数字，toString()方法就是输出1->2->3->4->5->null的一个东西

传递一个数组。。。。。

[ladybirds2008]

这是一个基础问题。。。还是好好想想吧。。。

PTList，list of points? 当其是一个简单链表来实现吧

观此构成 1->2->3->null
PTlist成员需要有value，有next

private int value;
private PTList next;

在cons方法中构造链表，当使用时就能从头遍历到尾

[科學信仰]

至于head是Object的，或是为了增加弹性，或是为了增添迷惑，或...未知
Object可以是PTList

Java 链表？.........
