/**
* Legacy version of {@link java.util.function.Function java.util.function.Function}.
*
* The {@link Functions} class provides common functions and related utilities.
*
*
As this interface extends {@code java.util.function.Function}, an instance of this type can be
* used as a {@code java.util.function.Function} directly. To use a {@code
* java.util.function.Function} in a context where a {@code acscommons.com.google.common.base.Function} is
* needed, use {@code function::apply}.
*
*
This interface is now a legacy type. Use {@code java.util.function.Function} (or the
* appropriate primitive specialization such as {@code ToIntFunction}) instead whenever possible.
* Otherwise, at least reduce explicit dependencies on this type by using lambda expressions
* or method references instead of classes, leaving your code easier to migrate in the future.
*
*
See the Guava User Guide article on the use of {@code Function}.

Historically, {@code Function} instances in this library have implemented this method to
* recognize certain cases where distinct {@code Function} instances would in fact behave
* identically. However, as code migrates to {@code java.util.function}, that behavior will
* disappear. It is best not to depend on it.
