While going through Collection Mapping in Hibernate. I came accrosse inherent order. What does it mean to have inherent order?

It refers to whether the order of the elements in a collection is important or not. A list has inherent order: A list containing [1, 2, 3] is different from a list containing [3, 2, 1]. A set, on the other hand, does not have inherent order: A set containing [1, 2, 3], is the same as a set containing [3, 2, 1] or [2, 1, 3] and so on.
