/**
 * Abstract superclass to make it easier to implement the List interface when
 * backed by a sequential-access store, such as a linked list. For random
 * access data, use AbstractList. This class implements the random access
 * methods (<code>get</code>, <code>set</code>, <code>add</code>, and
 * <code>remove</code>) atop the list iterator, opposite of AbstractList's
 * approach of implementing the iterator atop random access.
 * <p>
 *
 * To implement a list, you need an implementation for <code>size()</code>
 * and <code>listIterator</code>.  With just <code>hasNext</code>,
 * <code>next</code>, <code>hasPrevious</code>, <code>previous</code>,
 * <code>nextIndex</code>, and <code>previousIndex</code>, you have an
 * unmodifiable list. For a modifiable one, add <code>set</code>, and for
 * a variable-size list, add <code>add</code> and <code>remove</code>.
 * <p>
 *
 * The programmer should provide a no-argument constructor, and one that
 * accepts another Collection, as recommended by the Collection interface.
 * Unfortunately, there is no way to enforce this in Java.
