Java Collections Framework — Full Course Syllabus

Learn the essential classes and interfaces of the Java Collections Framework for efficient data management.

1. 1. ArrayList ClassA resizable array implementation of the List interface, allowing dynamic array size.
2. 2. LinkedList ClassA doubly linked list implementation of the List interface, allowing efficient insertions and deletions.
3. 3. HashSet ClassA collection that implements the Set interface, backed by a hash table, allowing no duplicate elements.
4. 4. HashMap ClassA hash table-based implementation of the Map interface, allowing null values and keys.
5. 5. Collection InterfaceThe root interface in the Java Collections Framework that defines common methods for all collections.
6. 6. List InterfaceAn interface that defines an ordered collection allowing duplicate elements.
7. 7. Set InterfaceAn interface that defines a collection that cannot contain duplicate elements.
8. 8. Map InterfaceAn interface that represents a collection of key-value pairs, where each key is unique.
9. 9. TreeSet ClassA NavigableSet implementation that uses a red-black tree to store elements in sorted order.
10. 10. TreeMap ClassA map that is sorted according to the natural ordering of its keys or by a comparator provided at map creation.
11. 11. PriorityQueue ClassA queue that orders its elements according to their natural ordering or by a comparator provided at queue creation.
12. 12. Collections Utility ClassA utility class that consists of static methods for operating on collections, such as sorting and searching.
13. 13. Iterator InterfaceAn interface that provides methods to iterate over a collection.
14. 14. ListIterator InterfaceAn interface that extends Iterator to allow bidirectional traversal of a list.
15. 15. LinkedHashMap ClassA hash table and linked list implementation of the Map interface, maintaining insertion order.
16. 16. ConcurrentHashMap ClassA thread-safe variant of HashMap that allows concurrent access by multiple threads.
