1：Vector简介
Java中Vector类是允许不同类型元素共存的变长数组，Java.util.Vector提供了向量（Vector）类以实现类似动态数组的功能。在Java语言中是没有指针概念的，但如果能正确灵活地使用指针又确实可以大大提高程序的质量，比如在C、C++中所谓“动态数组”一般都由指针来实现。为了弥补这点缺陷，Java提供了丰富的类库来方便编程者使用，Vector类便是其中之一。事实上，灵活使用数组也可完成向量类的功能，向量类中提供的大量方法也大大方便了用户的使用。
Vector 作为一款古老的集合工具（since JDK1.0），从 JDK1.2 开始被改造成 List 的实现加入集合框架。它的实现基本与ArrayList相同，主要区别在于它是一个线程安全的集合。

增加和删除操作才算作结构的改变，才会记录修改次数。修改时不记录修改次数。
