Collections are a more powerful form of arrays. In this lesson we demonstrate an "old style" collection (pointing out their limitations) as well as several of the newer, strongly typed generic collections (List(Of T) and Dictionary(Of T1, T2)) utilizing the generics syntax.

Thanks so much for this video. I literally was wondering how to make a
```
Dim list As New List(of List(Of String)) From {New List(Of String) From {"G","b","c"}}
```
Thanks so much for it!
