Java 1.2 replaces the original tiny set of collections with a much more complete and functional collections library. The design can seem a bit strange at first, but this talk will clarify the library using a group of small, simple examples. You?ll learn the power, flexibility and reusability of collection classes in your programming.

101 South take the San Antonio North exit which will take you over the freeway. Go thought the light at Bayshore. Turn right on Casey Ave (very small sign), then make the next right on Marine Way, then left on Coast Ave. Go down to the end of Coast turn right into the parking lot at end of street. Building 6 will be the first one on the left. You can see the sign that says building 6 (it will be extremely obvious).
From 101 North take the San Antonio exit, and then turn right. Then the same directions as above.
