Dear Java Programmer:
 
 
"In fact, this program can be made even shorter and faster. The Arrays class 
has a static factory method called asList, which allows an array to be viewed 
as a List. This method does not copy the array. Changes in the List write 
through to the array and vice versa. The resulting List is not a 
general-purpose List implementation, because it doesn't implement the 
(optional) add and remove operations: Arrays are not resizable. "

I kinda understand the List writes through to the array which means it changes 
the array to a list.  But then it says vice versa?  The array writes back to 
the list.
 
What is "writes back" means in this terminology?

Respects,
