    QList as an array-list combines the easy-of-use of a random

    appending, prepending, and removing elements from both the front
    and the back all happen in constant time O(1). Inserting or
    removing elements at random index positions \ai happens in linear

    the number of elements in the list.

/*! \class QList
    \inmodule QtCore
    \brief The QList class is a template class that provides lists.

    \ingroup tools
    \ingroup shared

    \reentrant

    QList\<T\> is one of Qt's generic \l{container classes}. It
    stores a list of values and provides fast index-based access as
    well as fast insertions and removals.

    QList\<T\>, QLinkedList\<T\>, and QVector\<T\> provide similar
    functionality. Here's an overview:

    \list
    \li For most purposes, QList is the right class to use. Its
       index-based API is more convenient than QLinkedList's
       iterator-based API, and it is usually faster than
       QVector because of the way it stores its items in
       memory. It also expands to less code in your executable.
    \li If you need a real linked list, with guarantees of \l{constant
       time} insertions in the middle of the list and iterators to
       items rather than indexes, use QLinkedList.
    \li If you want the items to occupy adjacent memory positions,
       use QVector.
    \endlist


    Internally, QList\<T\> is represented as an array of pointers to
    items of type T. If T is itself a pointer type or a basic type
    that is no larger than a pointer, or if T is one of Qt's \l{shared
    classes}, then QList\<T\> stores the items directly in the pointer
    array. For lists under a thousand items, this array representation
    allows for very fast insertions in the middle, and it allows
    index-based access. Furthermore, operations like prepend() and
    append() are very fast, because QList preallocates memory at both
    ends of its internal array. (See \l{Algorithmic Complexity} for
    details.) Note, however, that for unshared list items that are
    larger than a pointer, each append or insert of a new item
    requires allocating the new item on the heap, and this per item
    allocation might make QVector a better choice in cases that do
    lots of appending or inserting, since QVector allocates memory for
    its items in a single heap allocation.

    Note that the internal array only ever gets bigger over the life
    of the list. It never shrinks. The internal array is deallocated
    by the destructor and by the assignment operator, when one list
    is assigned to another.

    Here's an example of a QList that stores integers and
    a QList that stores QDate values:

    \snippet code/src_corelib_tools_qlistdata.cpp 0

    Qt includes a QStringList class that inherits QList\<QString\>
    and adds a few convenience functions, such as QStringList::join()
    and QStringList::filter().  QString::split() creates QStringLists
    from strings.

    QList stores a list of items. The default constructor creates an
    empty list. To insert items into the list, you can use
    operator<<():

    \snippet code/src_corelib_tools_qlistdata.cpp 1

    QList provides these basic functions to add, move, and remove
    items: insert(), replace(), removeAt(), move(), and swap(). In
    addition, it provides the following convenience functions:
    append(), prepend(), removeFirst(), and removeLast().

    QList uses 0-based indexes, just like C++ arrays. To access the
    item at a particular index position, you can use operator[](). On
    non-const lists, operator[]() returns a reference to the item and
    can be used on the left side of an assignment:

    \snippet code/src_corelib_tools_qlistdata.cpp 2

    Because QList is implemented as an array of pointers, this
    operation is very fast (\l{constant time}). For read-only access,
    an alternative syntax is to use at():

    \snippet code/src_corelib_tools_qlistdata.cpp 3

    at() can be faster than operator[](), because it never causes a
    \l{deep copy} to occur.

    A common requirement is to remove an item from a list and do
    something with it. For this, QList provides takeAt(), takeFirst(),
    and takeLast(). Here's a loop that removes the items from a list
    one at a time and calls \c delete on them:

    \snippet code/src_corelib_tools_qlistdata.cpp 4

    Inserting and removing items at either ends of the list is very
    fast (\l{constant time} in most cases), because QList
    preallocates extra space on both sides of its internal buffer to
    allow for fast growth at both ends of the list.

    If you want to find all occurrences of a particular value in a
    list, use indexOf() or lastIndexOf(). The former searches forward
    starting from a given index position, the latter searches
    backward. Both return the index of a matching item if they find
    it; otherwise, they return -1. For example:

    \snippet code/src_corelib_tools_qlistdata.cpp 5

    If you simply want to check whether a list contains a particular
    value, use contains(). If you want to find out how many times a
    particular value occurs in the list, use count(). If you want to
    replace all occurrences of a particular value with another, use
    replace().

    QList's value type must be an \l{assignable data type}. This
    covers most data types that are commonly used, but the compiler
    won't let you, for example, store a QWidget as a value; instead,
    store a QWidget *. A few functions have additional requirements;
    for example, indexOf() and lastIndexOf() expect the value type to
    support \c operator==().  These requirements are documented on a
    per-function basis.

    Like the other container classes, QList provides \l{Java-style
    iterators} (QListIterator and QMutableListIterator) and
    \l{STL-style iterators} (QList::const_iterator and
    QList::iterator). In practice, these are rarely used, because you
    can use indexes into the QList. QList is implemented in such a way
    that direct index-based access is just as fast as using iterators.

    QList does \e not support inserting, prepending, appending or
    replacing with references to its own values. Doing so will cause
    your application to abort with an error message.

    To make QList as efficient as possible, its member functions don't
    validate their input before using it. Except for isEmpty(), member
    functions always assume the list is \e not empty. Member functions
    that take index values as parameters always assume their index
    value parameters are in the valid range. This means QList member
    functions can fail. If you define QT_NO_DEBUG when you compile,
    failures will not be detected. If you \e don't define QT_NO_DEBUG,
    failures will be detected using Q_ASSERT() or Q_ASSERT_X() with an
    appropriate message.

    To avoid failures when your list can be empty, call isEmpty()
    before calling other member functions. If you must pass an index
    value that might not be in the valid range, check that it is less
    than the value returned by size() but \e not less than 0.

    \section1 More Members

    If T is a QByteArray, this class has a couple more members that can be
    used. See the documentation for QByteArrayList for more information.

    If T is QString, this class has the following additional members:
    \l{QStringList::filter()}{filter},
    \l{QStringList::join()}{join},
    \l{QStringList::removeDuplicates()}{removeDuplicates},
    \l{QStringList::sort()}{sort}.

/*! \class QList::iterator
    \inmodule QtCore
    \brief The QList::iterator class provides an STL-style non-const iterator for QList and QQueue.

    QList features both \l{STL-style iterators} and \l{Java-style
    iterators}. The STL-style iterators are more low-level and more
    cumbersome to use; on the other hand, they are slightly faster
    and, for developers who already know STL, have the advantage of
    familiarity.

    QList\<T\>::iterator allows you to iterate over a QList\<T\> (or
    QQueue\<T\>) and to modify the list item associated with the
    iterator. If you want to iterate over a const QList, use
    QList::const_iterator instead. It is generally good practice to
    use QList::const_iterator on a non-const QList as well, unless
    you need to change the QList through the iterator. Const
    iterators are slightly faster, and can improve code readability.

    The default QList::iterator constructor creates an uninitialized
    iterator. You must initialize it using a QList function like
    QList::begin(), QList::end(), or QList::insert() before you can
    start iterating. Here's a typical loop that prints all the items
    stored in a list:

    \snippet code/src_corelib_tools_qlistdata.cpp 15

    Let's see a few examples of things we can do with a
    QList::iterator that we cannot do with a QList::const_iterator.
    Here's an example that increments every value stored in a
    QList\<int\> by 2:

    \snippet code/src_corelib_tools_qlistdata.cpp 16

    Most QList functions accept an integer index rather than an
    iterator. For that reason, iterators are rarely useful in
    connection with QList. One place where STL-style iterators do
    make sense is as arguments to \l{generic algorithms}.

    For example, here's how to delete all the widgets stored in a
    QList\<QWidget *\>:

    \snippet code/src_corelib_tools_qlistdata.cpp 17

    Multiple iterators can be used on the same list. However, be
    aware that any non-const function call performed on the QList
    will render all existing iterators undefined. If you need to keep
    iterators over a long period of time, we recommend that you use
    QLinkedList rather than QList.

    \warning Iterators on implicitly shared containers do not work
    exactly like STL-iterators. You should avoid copying a container
    while iterators are active on that container. For more information,
    read \l{Implicit sharing iterator problem}.
