Enumeration in Vectors and Iterator in Collection classes

Yep, both an Enumeration and an Iterator hop over the elements of a

collection. An iterator can (optionally) remove a current element but an

Enumeration can not. The Enumeration class is an old class and it

existed far before the Collection framework saw the light.

Consider it a legacy class that needs to be used sometimes but prefer

an Iterator when you can.

kind regards,
