// Description -------------------------------------------------------------
//
//      Defines the abstract class Container.  A Container is an object
//      which groups some number of other objects together.  This is
//      an abstract class and provides no method for adding and
//      removing objects from the container.  Those functions are
//      provided by derived classes.
//
//      Constructor
//
//      Container
//
//      Copy constructor
//
// Public Members
//
//      isEmpty
//
//      Returns a 1 if the container has no members.  Returns a 0
//      otherwise.
//
//      initIterator
//
//      Initializes an iterator for this container.
//
//      firstThat
//
//      Returns the first object that satisfies the given condition.
//
//      lastThat
//
//      Returns the last object that satisfies the given condition.
//
//      isA
//
//      Inherited from Object and redeclared as pure virtual.
//
//      hashValue
//
//      Inherited from Object and redeclared as pure virtual.
//


//      nameOf
//
//      Inherited from Object and redeclared as pure virtual.
//
//      isEqual
//
//      A deep-comparison equality operator.
//
//      getItemsInContainer
//
//      Returns the current number of objects in any container.
//
//      printOn
//
//      Displays each of the objects which make up a container.
//
//      printHeader
//
//      Displays a standard header.
//
//      printSeparator
//
//      Displays a standard trailer.
//
//      printTrailer
//
//      Displays a standard trailer.
//
// Inherited Members
//
//      operator new
//
//      Inherited from Object.
//
// Protected Members
//
//      itemsInContainer
//
//      A count of the number of items in currently in the container.
//
// Private Members
//
//      The class ContainerIterator is made a friend of class Object so that
//      objects can be iterated without knowing the internals of each class.
