external code to read the `average` but not modify it.
Because we've encapsulated the implementation details of `AveragedCollection`,
we could also change aspects like using a different data structure used for the
`list` to use a `HashSet` instead of a `Vec`, for instance. As long as the
signatures of the `add`, `remove`, and `average` public methods stayed the same,
code using `AveragedCollection` wouldn't need to change. This wouldn't
necessarily be the case if we exposed `list` to external code: `HashSet` and
`Vec` have different methods for adding and removing items, so the external
we can easily change aspects like the data structure in the future; for
instance, we could use a `HashSet` instead of a `Vec` for the `list` variable.
