# `gno.land/p/moul/collection/v0`

A generic collection with multiple indexes (unique, case-insensitive, sparse,
multi-value), backed by a **B+ tree** ([`gno.land/p/nt/bptree/v0`](https://github.com/gnolang/gno/tree/master/examples/gno.land/p/nt/bptree)).

A B+ tree packs many entries per persisted node, so each index entry costs
materially less storage and gas than an AVL backing would.

Two operational caveats follow from the in-place-mutating B+ tree backing:

- do **not** mutate the collection (`Set`/`Update`/`Delete`) from inside an index
  iteration callback — a copy-on-write AVL backing would tolerate it, this one
  does not;
- do **not** copy a non-zero `Collection` by value — the copies would share live
  tree nodes while their state diverges.
