Hi,

Why we have 3 types of collections(Index-by-tables,Nested tables and V-Arrays)?

Which collection we need to use for different sinarios?

Please provide examples.

Is there any max size applicable for the any/all of the collection types? If so, what is the max size?

It literally took 5 seconds to open the doc link above and ctrl-f to search for limit:

Number of Elements
 
If the number of elements is specified, it is the maximum number of elements in the collection. If the number of elements is unspecified, the maximum number of elements in the collection is the upper limit of the index type.
I don't think you undersatnd my question correctly.
My question is what is the maximum number of records one collection can hold?
Ex: varray(x),In this what is the x's maximum size we can specify,1000000 or 10000000 ...
Just I have taken the varray ex , In the same way I am looking for the all the collection types.

and I don't like some of your comments like:
