/**
 * Represents an ADD action in the ADD section of an update expression.
 * 
 * 
Important
 * The ADD action only supports Number and set data types. In general, DynamoDB
 * recommends using SET rather than ADD.
 * 
 * Use the ADD action in an update expression to do either of the following:
 * 
 * If the attribute does not already exist, add the new attribute and its
 * value(s) to the item.
 * 
 * If the attribute already exists, then the behavior of ADD depends on the
 * attribute's data type:
 * 
 * If the attribute is a number, and the value you are adding is also a number,
 * then the value is mathematically added to the existing attribute. (If the
 * value is a negative number, then it is subtracted from the existing
 * attribute.)
 * 
 * If the attribute is a set, and the value you are adding is also a set, then
 * the value is appended to the existing set.
 * 
 * 
 * 
 * This object is as immutable (or unmodifiable) as the underlying value (of
 * type UnitOfExpression) given during construction.
