ZT Java Collections Cheat Sheet

This document provides a summary of notable Java collections libraries and their features. It includes a table comparing common collection classes and their thread-safe alternatives in terms of supported operations like random access, ordered iteration, and primitive type support. Another table outlines the time complexity of common operations like contains checks, insertion, and searching for different collection classes.
