Busy Java Developer's Guide to Advanced Collections

Once you've learned the core Collections clases, you're done, right? You know everything there is to know about Collections, and you can "check that off" your list of Java packages you have to learn and know, right?

In this presentation, we'll go over what's missing from the Java Collections library, what is provided via other sources (Google and Apache, among others), and what you can provide for yourself, including a brief foray into the world of functional programing, and how it can make your Java code more elegant.

Prerequisite: Busy Java Developer's Guide to Collections
