44 <h1>The Collections Framework</h1>
45 <!-- Body text begins here -->
46 <p>The collections framework is a unified architecture for
47 representing and manipulating collections, enabling them to be
48 manipulated independently of the details of their representation.
49 It reduces programming effort while increasing performance. It
50 enables interoperability among unrelated APIs, reduces effort in
51 designing and learning new APIs, and fosters software reuse. The
52 framework is based on more than a dozen collection interfaces. It
53 includes implementations of these interfaces and algorithms to
54 manipulate them.</p>
