  29  * This class provides a skeletal implementation of the {@link List}
  30  * interface to minimize the effort required to implement this interface
  31  * backed by a "random access" data store (such as an array).  For sequential
  32  * access data (such as a linked list), {@link AbstractSequentialList} should
  33  * be used in preference to this class.
  34  *
  35  * <p>To implement an unmodifiable list, the programmer needs only to extend
  36  * this class and provide implementations for the {@link #get(int)} and
  37  * {@link List#size() size()} methods.
  38  *
  39  * <p>To implement a modifiable list, the programmer must additionally
  40  * override the {@link #set(int, Object) set(int, E)} method (which otherwise
  41  * throws an {@code UnsupportedOperationException}).  If the list is
  42  * variable-size the programmer must additionally override the
  43  * {@link #add(int, Object) add(int, E)} and {@link #remove(int)} methods.
  44  *
  45  * <p>The programmer should generally provide a void (no argument) and collection
  46  * constructor, as per the recommendation in the {@link Collection} interface
  47  * specification.
  48  *
  49  * <p>Unlike the other abstract collection implementations, the programmer does
  50  * <i>not</i> have to provide an iterator implementation; the iterator and
  51  * list iterator are implemented by this class, on top of the "random access"
  52  * methods:
  53  * {@link #get(int)},
  54  * {@link #set(int, Object) set(int, E)},
  55  * {@link #add(int, Object) add(int, E)} and
  56  * {@link #remove(int)}.
  57  *
  58  * <p>The documentation for each non-abstract method in this class describes its
  59  * implementation in detail.  Each of these methods may be overridden if the
  60  * collection being implemented admits a more efficient implementation.
  61  *
  62  * <p>This class is a member of the
  63  * <a href="{@docRoot}/../technotes/guides/collections/index.html">
  64  * Java Collections Framework</a>.

 462      * @implSpec
 463      * This implementation returns a list that subclasses
 464      * {@code AbstractList}.  The subclass stores, in private fields, the
 465      * offset of the subList within the backing list, the size of the subList
 466      * (which can change over its lifetime), and the expected
 467      * {@code modCount} value of the backing list.  There are two variants
 468      * of the subclass, one of which implements {@code RandomAccess}.
 469      * If this list implements {@code RandomAccess} the returned list will
 470      * be an instance of the subclass that implements {@code RandomAccess}.
 471      *
 472      * <p>The subclass's {@code set(int, E)}, {@code get(int)},
 473      * {@code add(int, E)}, {@code remove(int)}, {@code addAll(int,
 474      * Collection)} and {@code removeRange(int, int)} methods all
 475      * delegate to the corresponding methods on the backing abstract list,
 476      * after bounds-checking the index and adjusting for the offset.  The
 477      * {@code addAll(Collection c)} method merely returns {@code addAll(size,
 478      * c)}.
 479      *
 480      * <p>The {@code listIterator(int)} method returns a "wrapper object"
 481      * over a list iterator on the backing list, which is created with the
 482      * corresponding method on the backing list.  The {@code iterator} method
 483      * merely returns {@code listIterator()}, and the {@code size} method
 484      * merely returns the subclass's {@code size} field.
 485      *
 486      * <p>All methods first check to see if the actual {@code modCount} of
 487      * the backing list is equal to its expected value, and throw a
 488      * {@code ConcurrentModificationException} if it is not.
 489      *
 490      * @throws IndexOutOfBoundsException if an endpoint index value is out of range
 491      *         {@code (fromIndex < 0 || toIndex > size)}
 492      * @throws IllegalArgumentException if the endpoint indices are out of order
