Collection和Collections有什么区别?

Collection是JDK中集合层次结构中的最根本的接口。定义了集合类的基本方法。源码中的解释:

 * The root interface in the <i>collection hierarchy</i>.  A collection
 * represents a group of objects, known as its <i>elements</i>.  Some
 * collections allow duplicate elements and others do not.  Some are ordered
 * and others unordered.  The JDK does not provide any <i>direct</i>
 * implementations of this interface: it provides implementations of more
 * specific subinterfaces like <tt>Set</tt> and <tt>List</tt>.  This interface
 * is typically used to pass collections around and manipulate them where
 * maximum generality is desired.

 

Collections是一个包装类。它包含有各种有关集合操作的静态多态方法,不能实例化,像一个Collection集合框架中的工具类。

* This class consists exclusively of static methods that operate on or return
* collections.  It contains polymorphic algorithms that operate on
* collections, "wrappers", which return a new collection backed by a
* specified collection, and a few other odds and ends.
