/**
 * A basic implementation of most of the methods in the List interface to make
 * it easier to create a List based on a random-access data structure. If
 * the list is sequential (such as a linked list), use AbstractSequentialList.
 * To create an unmodifiable list, it is only necessary to override the
 * size() and get(int) methods (this contrasts with all other abstract
 * collection classes which require an iterator to be provided). To make the
 * list modifiable, the set(int, Object) method should also be overridden, and
 * to make the list resizable, the add(int, Object) and remove(int) methods
 * should be overridden too. Other methods should be overridden if the
 * backing data structure allows for a more efficient implementation.
 * The precise implementation used by AbstractList is documented, so that
 * subclasses can tell which methods could be implemented more efficiently.
 * <p>
 *
 * As recommended by Collection and List, the subclass should provide at
 * least a no-argument and a Collection constructor. This class is not
 * synchronized.
