| 37 | * The root interface in the <em>collection hierarchy</em>. | |
| 38 | * A collection represents a group of objects, known as its <em>elements</em>. | |
| 39 | * <p>Some collections allow duplicate elements and others do not. Some are ordered and others unordered.</p> | |
| 40 | * <p>This interface is typically used to pass collections around and manipulate them where maximum generality is desired.</p> | |
| 41 | * <p>The methods that modify the collection are specified to throw org.as3coreaddendum.errors.UnsupportedOperationError if the collection does not support the operation. | |
| 42 | * These methods are documented as "optional operation".</p> | |
| 43 | * <p>This documentation is partially based in the <em>Java Collections Framework</em> JavaDoc documentation. | |
