"An iterable collection of elements of finite [[size]], with
a well-defined notion of [[value equality|equals]].
`Collection` is the abstract supertype of [[List]], [[Map]],
and [[Set]].
A `Collection` forms a [[Category]] of its elements, and is
[[Iterable]]. The elements of a collection are not
necessarily distinct when compared using [[Object.equals]].
A `Collection` may be [[cloned|clone]]. If a collection is
immutable, it is acceptable that `clone()` produce a
reference to the collection itself. If a collection is
mutable, `clone()` should produce a collection containing
references to the same elements, with the same structure as
the original collection—that is, it should produce a
shallow copy of the collection.
All `Collection`s are required to support a well-defined
notion of [[value equality|Object.equals]], but the
definition of equality depends upon the kind of collection.
Equality for `Map`s and `Set`s has a quite different
definition to equality for `List`s. Instances of two
different kinds of collection are never equal—for
example, a `Map` is never equal to a `List`."
