CHAPTER 6
Generics and Collections
Every non-trivial Java application makes use of data structures and algorithms. The Java collections framework provides a large set of readily usable general-purpose data structures and algorithms. These data structures and algorithms can be used with any suitable data type in a type-safe manner; this is achieved through the use of a language feature known as generics.
Since data structures and algorithms are implemented using generics, these two complementary topics are combined together as a single topic ...
