This implementation iterates over the specified collection, checking each element returned by the iterator in turn to see if it's contained in this collection. If all elements are so contained true is returned, otherwise false.
Throws:
- ClassCastException - {@inheritDoc}
- NullPointerException - {@inheritDoc}
See Also: AbstractCollection.contains(Object),

This implementation first checks if the specified object is this list. If so, it returns true; if not, it checks if the specified object is a list. If not, it returns false; if so, it iterates over both lists, comparing corresponding pairs of elements. If any comparison returns false, this method returns false. If either iterator runs out of elements before the other it returns false (as the lists are of unequal length); otherwise it returns true when the iterations complete.
Returns: {@code true} if the specified object is equal to this list
Parameters:
- o - the object to be compared for equality with this list

This implementation uses exactly the code that is used to define the list hash function in the documentation for the List.hashCode() method.
Returns: the hash code value for this list

This implementation returns size() == 0.

This implementation merely returns a list iterator over the list.
Returns: an iterator over the elements in this list (in proper sequence)

This implementation returns listIterator(0).

This implementation iterates over this collection, checking each element returned by the iterator in turn to see if it's contained in the specified collection. If it's so contained, it's removed from this collection with the iterator's remove method.

Note that this implementation will throw an UnsupportedOperationException if the iterator returned by the iterator method does not implement the remove method and this collection contains one or more elements in common with the specified collection.
Throws:
- UnsupportedOperationException - {@inheritDoc}
- ClassCastException - {@inheritDoc}
- NullPointerException - {@inheritDoc}

This method is called by the clear operation on this list and its subLists. Overriding this method to take advantage of the internals of the list implementation can substantially improve the performance of the clear operation on this list and its subLists.

This implementation gets a list iterator positioned before fromIndex, and repeatedly calls ListIterator.next followed by ListIterator.remove until the entire range has been removed. Note: if ListIterator.remove requires linear time, this implementation requires quadratic time.
Parameters:
- fromIndex - index of first element to be removed
- toIndex - index after last element to be removed

This implementation iterates over this collection, checking each element returned by the iterator in turn to see if it's contained in the specified collection. If it's not so contained, it's removed from this collection with the iterator's remove method.

Note that this implementation will throw an UnsupportedOperationException if the iterator returned by the iterator method does not implement the remove method and this collection contains one or more elements not present in the specified collection.
Throws:
- UnsupportedOperationException - {@inheritDoc}
- ClassCastException - {@inheritDoc}
- NullPointerException - {@inheritDoc}

This method eliminates the need for explicit range operations (of the sort that commonly exist for arrays). Any operation that expects a list can be used as a range operation by passing a subList view instead of a whole list. For example, the following idiom removes a range of elements from a list:

      list.subList(from, to).clear();
 

The semantics of the list returned by this method become undefined if the backing list (i.e., this list) is structurally modified in any way other than via the returned list. (Structural modifications are those that change the size of this list, or otherwise perturb it in such a fashion that iterations in progress may yield incorrect results.)

This implementation returns a list that subclasses AbstractList. The subclass stores, in private fields, the offset of the subList within the backing list, the size of the subList (which can change over its lifetime), and the expected modCount value of the backing list. There are two variants of the subclass, one of which implements RandomAccess. If this list implements RandomAccess the returned list will be an instance of the subclass that implements RandomAccess.

The subclass's set(int, E), get(int), add(int, E), remove(int), addAll(int, Collection) and removeRange(int, int) methods all delegate to the corresponding methods on the backing abstract list, after bounds-checking the index and adjusting for the offset. The addAll(Collection c) method merely returns addAll(size, c).

The listIterator(int) method returns a "wrapper object" over a list iterator on the backing list, which is created with the corresponding method on the backing list. The iterator method merely returns listIterator(), and the size method merely returns the subclass's size field.

All methods first check to see if the actual modCount of the backing list is equal to its expected value, and throw a ConcurrentModificationException if it is not.
Throws:
- IndexOutOfBoundsException - endpoint index value out of range {@code (fromIndex < 0 || toIndex > size)}
- IllegalArgumentException - if the endpoint indices are out of order {@code (fromIndex > toIndex)}
