Container (abstract data type)
In computer science, a container is a class, a data structure, or an abstract data type (ADT) whose instances are collections of other objects. In other words, they store objects in an organized way that follows specific access rules. The size of the container depends on the number of objects (elements) it contains. Underlying implementation of various container types may vary in space and time complexity, which provides flexibility in choosing the right implementation for a given scenario.
