    Iterates through this array transforming each item using the transform closure and returning a map of the resulting transformed entries.

// collect letters with index using map style
assert nums.collectEntries { index -> [(index): letters[index]] } == [0:'a', 1:'b', 2:'c']
```
    Note: When using the list-style of result, the behavior is 'def (key, value) = listResultFromClosure'. While we strongly discourage using a list of size other than 2, Groovy's normal semantics apply in this case; throwing away elements after the second one and using null for the key or value for the case of a shortened list.

assert nums.collectEntries( [4:'d'] ) { index ->
    [(index+1): letters[index]] } == [1:'a', 2:'b', 3:'c', 4:'d']
```
    Note: When using the list-style of result, the behavior is 'def (key, value) = listResultFromClosure'. While we strongly discourage using a list of size other than 2, Groovy's normal semantics apply in this case; throwing away elements after the second one and using null for the key or value for the case of a shortened list. If your collector Map doesn't support null keys or values, you might get a runtime error, e.g. NullPointerException or IllegalArgumentException.

    Object[]#toSorted(Comparator)
  - public Object[] toSorted(Closure condition)
    
    Sorts the elements from this array into a newly created array using the Closure to determine the correct ordering.
    If the closure has two parameters it is used like a traditional Comparator. I.e. it should compare its two parameters for order, returning a negative integer, zero, or a positive integer when the first parameter is less than, equal to, or greater than the second respectively. Otherwise, the Closure is assumed to take a single parameter and return a Comparable (typically an Integer) which is then used for further comparison.
    
    Parameters:
    
    condition - a Closure used to determine the correct ordering
    
    Returns:
    
    a sorted array

  - public Object[] toSorted(Comparator comparator)
    
    Returns a sorted version of the given array using the supplied comparator to determine the resulting order.
```

Integer[] nums = [9, 44, 222, 7000]
def result = nums.toSorted(sumDigitsComparator)
assert result instanceof Integer[]

  - public Object[] toUnique()
    
    Returns a new Array containing the items from the original Array but with duplicates removed using the natural ordering of the items in the array.
```
String[] letters = ['c', 'a', 't', 's', 'a', 't', 'h', 'a', 't']
String[] expected = ['c', 'a', 't', 's', 'h']
def result = letters.toUnique()

String[] expected = ['c', 'a', 't', 's', 'h']
assert letters.toUnique{ p1, p2 -> p1.toLowerCase() <=> p2.toLowerCase() } == expected

String[] lower = ['c', 'a', 't', 's', 'h']
class LowerComparator implements Comparator {
    int compare(let1, let2) { let1.toLowerCase() <=> let2.toLowerCase() }
}
assert letters.toUnique(new LowerComparator()) == lower
```
    Parameters:
    
    comparator - a Comparator used to determine unique (equal) items If null, the Comparable natural ordering of the elements will be used.
