A List allows you to store a collection of elements in a specific order and provides various methods for inserting, deleting, and accessing elements in the list. You can also perform various operations on the list, such as searching for an element, sorting the elements, and iterating through the elements. 

To get the maximum value from a list in Java, you can use the "Collections.max" method from the "java.util.Collections" class. This method takes a List as an argument and returns the maximum element according to the natural ordering of the elements. 

Collections.max: The Collections.max method takes a Collection as an argument and returns the maximum element according to the natural ordering of the elements. The natural ordering of the elements is determined by the “compareTo” method of the elements, which must be implemented by the elements if they are to be used with this method. 
java.util.Collections: java.util.Collections is a utility class that provides various static methods for operating on collections. The “Collections” class provides a variety of utility methods for working with collections, including methods for sorting, searching, shuffling, and synchronizing.

    numbers.add(50);
    int max = Integer.MIN_VALUE;
    int count = 1;
    for(int number : numbers){
        if(number > max){
            max = number;
            count = 1;
        } else if(number == max){
            count++;
        }
    }
    for(int i=0; i<count; i++){
        System.out.println(max);
