# Collection
Is a [Iterable] with known `size`, a finite [Iterable]:
class Collection : Iterable {
val size
}
`Collection` is a read/traversal contract shared by mutable and immutable collections.
Concrete collection classes:
- Mutable: [List], [Set], [Map]
- Immutable: [ImmutableList], [ImmutableSet], [ImmutableMap]
- Observable mutable lists (opt-in module): [ObservableList]

: `comparator(a,b)` should return -1 if `a < b`, +1 if `a > b` or zero.
