Abstract
When writing applications, developers often need a way to store an unknown number of items in a temporary structure. The most pervasive example of this is the online shopping cart. When a user browses an online store, one doesn’t know the number of items the user intends to purchase. To address this, application developers use collections to store these variable pieces of data.
