28/**
29 * An ordered collection (also known as a <i>sequence</i>). The user of this
30 * interface has precise control over where in the list each element is
31 * inserted. The user can access elements by their integer index (position in
32 * the list), and search for elements in the list.<p>
33 *
34 * Unlike sets, lists typically allow duplicate elements. More formally,
35 * lists typically allow pairs of elements <tt>e1</tt> and <tt>e2</tt>
36 * such that <tt>e1.equals(e2)</tt>, and they typically allow multiple
37 * null elements if they allow null elements at all. It is not inconceivable
38 * that someone might wish to implement a list that prohibits duplicates, by
39 * throwing runtime exceptions when the user attempts to insert them, but we
40 * expect this usage to be rare.<p>
41 *
42 * The <tt>List</tt> interface places additional stipulations, beyond those
43 * specified in the <tt>Collection</tt> interface, on the contracts of the
44 * <tt>iterator</tt>, <tt>add</tt>, <tt>remove</tt>, <tt>equals</tt>, and
45 * <tt>hashCode</tt> methods. Declarations for other inherited methods are
46 * also included here for convenience.<p>
47 *
48 * The <tt>List</tt> interface provides four methods for positional (indexed)
49 * access to list elements. Lists (like Java arrays) are zero based. Note
50 * that these operations may execute in time proportional to the index value
51 * for some implementations (the <tt>LinkedList</tt> class, for
52 * example). Thus, iterating over the elements in a list is typically
53 * preferable to indexing through it if the caller does not know the
54 * implementation.<p>
55 *
56 * The <tt>List</tt> interface provides a special iterator, called a
57 * <tt>ListIterator</tt>, that allows element insertion and replacement, and
58 * bidirectional access in addition to the normal operations that the
59 * <tt>Iterator</tt> interface provides. A method is provided to obtain a
60 * list iterator that starts at a specified position in the list.<p>
61 *
62 * The <tt>List</tt> interface provides two methods to search for a specified
63 * object. From a performance standpoint, these methods should be used with
64 * caution. In many implementations they will perform costly linear
65 * searches.<p>
66 *
67 * The <tt>List</tt> interface provides two methods to efficiently insert and
68 * remove multiple elements at an arbitrary point in the list.<p>
69 *
70 * Note: While it is permissible for lists to contain themselves as elements,
71 * extreme caution is advised: the <tt>equals</tt> and <tt>hashCode</tt>
72 * methods are no longer well defined on such a list.
73 *
74 * <p>Some list implementations have restrictions on the elements that
75 * they may contain. For example, some implementations prohibit null elements,
76 * and some have restrictions on the types of their elements. Attempting to
77 * add an ineligible element throws an unchecked exception, typically
78 * <tt>NullPointerException</tt> or <tt>ClassCastException</tt>. Attempting
79 * to query the presence of an ineligible element may throw an exception,
80 * or it may simply return false; some implementations will exhibit the former
81 * behavior and some will exhibit the latter. More generally, attempting an
82 * operation on an ineligible element whose completion would not result in
83 * the insertion of an ineligible element into the list may throw an
84 * exception or it may succeed, at the option of the implementation.
85 * Such exceptions are marked as "optional" in the specification for this
86 * interface.
87 *

89 * <a href="{@docRoot}/../technotes/guides/collections/index.html">
90 * Java Collections Framework</a>.
