Collecting Objects
Jeff Friesen · Apress eBooks · 2011
Applications often must manage collections of objects. Although you can use arrays for this purpose, they are not always a good choice. For example, arrays have fixed sizes, making it tricky to determine an optimal size when you need to store a variable number of objects. Also, arrays can be indexed by integers only, which make them unsuitable for mapping arbitrary objects to other objects. These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
