Remarks

IList is a descendant of the ICollection interface and is the base interface of all lists. IList implementations fall into three categories: read-only, fixed-size, variable-size. A read-only IList cannot be modified. A fixed-size IList does not allow the addition or removal of elements, but it allows the modification of existing elements. A variable-size IList allows the addition, removal and modification of elements.
