 * is useful in concurrent contexts when one thread modifies the underlying container when another thread is

/**
 * Modifying CopyOnWriteArrayList

 * Observe that the element “four” added three times is not printed as part of the output. This is because
 * the iterator still has access to the original (unmodified) container that had three elements. If you create a
 * new iterator and access the elements, you will find that new elements have been added to aList.

java.util.concurrent.CopyOnWriteArrayList<E>

A thread-safe variant of java.util.ArrayList in which all mutative operations (add,set, and so on) are implemented by making a fresh copy of the underlying array. 

当对CopyOnWriteArrayList调用改动数据操作方法的时候。会copy一份新的内部数组结构，而对原来的内部数组结构没影响。

假设要訪问新的数据，我们必须又一次获取底层新的数组结构的iterator（见上面的程序）。
