Returns:
true if the collection retains all of the specified objects, false otherwise.
size
size() : Number
Returns the size of the collection.
Returns:
the size of the collection.

Returns:
a newly created array.
toArray
toArray(start : Number, size : Number) : Array
Returns a subset of the elements of this collection in a newly created array. The returned array is independent of this collection and can be modified without changing the collection. The elements in the array are in the same order as they are returned when iterating over this collection.
Parameters:
start - the number of elements to iterate before adding elements to the array. Negative values are treated as 0.
