00027 * An iterator for lists that allows the programmer to traverse the list in
00028 * either direction, modify the list during iteration, and obtain the
00029 * iterator's current position in the list. A ListIterator has no current
00030 * element; its cursor position always lies between the element that would be
00031 * returned by a call to previous() and the element that would be returned
00032 * by a call to next(). In a list of length n, there are n+1 valid index
00033 * values, from 0 to n, inclusive.
