Preface

A miniseries

This is the tenth lesson in a miniseries on Java data structures and the Java Collections Framework. The first lesson in the miniseries was entitled Data Structures in Java: Part 1, Getting Started. The previous lesson was entitled Data Structures in Java: Part 9, The Comparator Interface, Part 1.

The purpose of this miniseries is to help you learn the essential features of Object-Oriented data structures in Java using the Collections Framework.

A sub-series

This is also the second lesson in a sub-series on the Comparator interface. The purpose of the lessons in this sub-series is to teach you about the interactions between the Comparator interface and the Collections Framework, particularly with respect to the Set, SortedSet, and SortedMap interfaces of the Collections Framework. This lesson discusses Set and SortedSet. A discussion of SortedMap will be deferred for inclusion in a subsequent lesson.

Viewing tip

You may find it useful to open another copy of this lesson in a separate browser window. That will make it easier for you to scroll back and forth among the different listings while you are reading about them...
