Preface

This is the seventh 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 6, Duplicate Elements, Ordered Collections, Sorted Collections, and Interface Specialization.

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

This is also the first lesson in a sub-series on the Comparable interface. The purpose of the lessons in the sub-series is to teach you about the interactions between the Comparable interface and the Collections Framework, particularly with respect to the Set, SortedSet, and SortedMap interfaces of the Collections Framework.

- Data Structures in Java: Part 15, The toArray Method, Part 1 New Hampshire

Baldwin shows you how to use the simpler version of the overloaded toArray method that is declared in the Collection interface. He also explains why you need to exercise care when using the elements stored in the resulting array to avoid corrupting the state of the objects referred to by the elements in the collection.
