| /** |
| * A collection that contains no duplicate elements. More formally, sets |
| * contain no pair of elements <code>e1</code> and <code>e2</code> such that |
| * <code>e1.equals(e2)</code>, and at most one null element. As implied by |
| * its name, this interface models the mathematical <i>set</i> abstraction. |
| * |
| * <p>The <tt>Set</tt> interface places additional stipulations, beyond those |
| * inherited from the <tt>Collection</tt> interface, on the contracts of all |
| * constructors and on the contracts of the <tt>add</tt>, <tt>equals</tt> and |
| * <tt>hashCode</tt> methods. Declarations for other inherited methods are |
| * also included here for convenience. (The specifications accompanying these |
| * declarations have been tailored to the <tt>Set</tt> interface, but they do |
| * not contain any additional stipulations.) |
| * |
| * <p>The additional stipulation on constructors is, not surprisingly, |
| * that all constructors must create a set that contains no duplicate elements |
| * (as defined above). |
| * |
| * <p>Note: Great care must be exercised if mutable objects are used as set |
| * elements. The behavior of a set is not specified if the value of an object |
| * is changed in a manner that affects <tt>equals</tt> comparisons while the |
| * object is an element in the set. A special case of this prohibition is |
| * that it is not permissible for a set to contain itself as an element. |
| * |
| * <p>Some set implementations have restrictions on the elements that |
| * they may contain. For example, some implementations prohibit null elements, |
| * and some have restrictions on the types of their elements. Attempting to |
| * add an ineligible element throws an unchecked exception, typically |
| * <tt>NullPointerException</tt> or <tt>ClassCastException</tt>. Attempting |
| * to query the presence of an ineligible element may throw an exception, |
| * or it may simply return false; some implementations will exhibit the former |
| * behavior and some will exhibit the latter. More generally, attempting an |
| * operation on an ineligible element whose completion would not result in |
| * the insertion of an ineligible element into the set may throw an |
| * exception or it may succeed, at the option of the implementation. |
| * Such exceptions are marked as "optional" in the specification for this |
| * interface. |
| * |
| * <p>This interface is a member of the |
| * <a href="https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/technotes/guides/collections/index.html"> |
| * Java Collections Framework</a>. |
