| /** |
| * A {@link SortedMap} extended with navigation methods returning the |
| * closest matches for given search targets. Methods |
| * {@code lowerEntry}, {@code floorEntry}, {@code ceilingEntry}, |
| * and {@code higherEntry} return {@code Map.Entry} objects |
| * associated with keys respectively less than, less than or equal, |
| * greater than or equal, and greater than a given key, returning |
| * {@code null} if there is no such key. Similarly, methods |
| * {@code lowerKey}, {@code floorKey}, {@code ceilingKey}, and |
| * {@code higherKey} return only the associated keys. All of these |
| * methods are designed for locating, not traversing entries. |
| * |
| * <p>A {@code NavigableMap} may be accessed and traversed in either |
| * ascending or descending key order. The {@code descendingMap} |
| * method returns a view of the map with the senses of all relational |
| * and directional methods inverted. The performance of ascending |
| * operations and views is likely to be faster than that of descending |
| * ones. Methods {@code subMap}, {@code headMap}, |
| * and {@code tailMap} differ from the like-named {@code |
| * SortedMap} methods in accepting additional arguments describing |
| * whether lower and upper bounds are inclusive versus exclusive. |
| * Submaps of any {@code NavigableMap} must implement the {@code |
| * NavigableMap} interface. |
| * |
| * <p>This interface additionally defines methods {@code firstEntry}, |
| * {@code pollFirstEntry}, {@code lastEntry}, and |
| * {@code pollLastEntry} that return and/or remove the least and |
| * greatest mappings, if any exist, else returning {@code null}. |
| * |
| * <p>Implementations of entry-returning methods are expected to |
| * return {@code Map.Entry} pairs representing snapshots of mappings |
| * at the time they were produced, and thus generally do <em>not</em> |
| * support the optional {@code Entry.setValue} method. Note however |
| * that it is possible to change mappings in the associated map using |
| * method {@code put}. |
| * |
| * <p>Methods |
| * {@link #subMap(Object, Object) subMap(K, K)}, |
| * {@link #headMap(Object) headMap(K)}, and |
| * {@link #tailMap(Object) tailMap(K)} |
| * are specified to return {@code SortedMap} to allow existing |
| * implementations of {@code SortedMap} to be compatibly retrofitted to |
| * implement {@code NavigableMap}, but extensions and implementations |
| * of this interface are encouraged to override these methods to return |
| * {@code NavigableMap}. Similarly, |
| * {@link #keySet()} can be overriden to return {@code NavigableSet}. |
