+### Collections
+
+Rust’s standard library includes a number of very useful data
+structures called collections. Most other data types represent one
+specific value, but collections can contain multiple values. Unlike
+the built-in array and tuple types, the data these collections point
+to is stored on the heap, which means the amount of data does not need
+to be known at compile time and can grow or shrink as the program
+runs.
+
+This exercise will get you familiar with two fundamental data
+structures that are used very often in Rust programs:
+
+* A *vector* allows you to store a variable number of values next to
+  each other.
+* A *hash map* allows you to associate a value with a particular key.
+  You may also know this by the names *map* in C++, *dictionary* in
+  Python or an *associative array* in other languages.

+In Rust, there are two ways to define a Vector.
+
+1. One way is to use the `Vec::new()` function to create a new vector
+  and fill it with the `push()` method.

+2. The second way, which is simpler is to use the `vec![]` macro and
