 * Denotation implies a pair of algorithms for naming and
 * indexing of some objects.

 * <p>No matter what kind of objects, just make sure that:
 * <ul>
 * <li><tt>indexFor(nameFor(index))</tt> equals to <tt>index</tt>
 * </li>
 * <li><tt>nameFor(indexFor(name))</tt> is equivalent to <tt>name</tt>
 * </li>
 * </ul>
 *
 * <p>The notions of indeces equality and names equivalence
 * are formalized by the methods <tt>equality()</tt> and
 * <tt>equivalence()</tt> correspondingly.
 *
 * <p>For better understanding of Denotation, you may want to
 * see the TreeNodesDenotation class as an implementation example.
