Ordered Set
An ordered-set is an iterable collection of ordered unique elements. The elements are expected to be iterated over in order, based on their values.
/**
* Ordered set of arbitrary values.
* Iteration order is based on the values.
*
* @param <T> Element type.
*/
public interface OrderedSet<T extends Comparable<T>> extends Set<T> {
// Same operations as the Set ADT
}
Notice we must use bounded generics to ensure the elements are comparable (otherwise, we cannot put them in order).
