Collections are essential for storing and managing groups of items efficiently.
Understanding different collection types like arrays, lists, dictionaries, sets, stacks, and queues is crucial in C#.
Using generic collections provides type safety, better performance, and clearer code compared to non-generic collections like ArrayList and Hashtable.
Choosing the right collection type based on requirements such as fixed-size, dynamic list, key/value pairs, unique items, or thread safety is key to writing clean and efficient code.
