Description

org.w3c.dom.NodeList is defined as an "abstract collection of Nodes" and java.util.List is defined as "An ordered collection (also known as a sequence). The user of this interface has precise control over where in the list each element is inserted. The user can access elements by their integer index (position in the list), and search for elements in the list.". It seemed similar enough, so I did an implementation of the useful methods, while throwing the appropriate exception when the method wouldn't make sense.
