/**
* A collection that maps keys to values, similar to {@link Map}, but in which
* each key may be associated with multiple values. You can visualize the
* contents of a multimap either as a map from keys to nonempty
* collections of values:
*
*
* - a → 1, 2
*
- b → 3
*
*
* ... or as a single "flattened" collection of key-value pairs:
*
*
* - a → 1
*
- a → 2
*
- b → 3
*
*
* Important: although the first interpretation resembles how most
* multimaps are implemented, the design of the {@code Multimap} API is
* based on the second form. So, using the multimap shown above as an
* example, the {@link #size} is {@code 3}, not {@code 2}, and the {@link
* #values} collection is {@code [1, 2, 3]}, not {@code [[1, 2], [3]]}. For
* those times when the first style is more useful, use the multimap's {@link
* #asMap} view (or create a {@code Map>} in the first place).
*
* Example
*
* The following code:
{@code
*
* ListMultimap multimap = ArrayListMultimap.create();
* for (President pres : US_PRESIDENTS_IN_ORDER) {
* multimap.put(pres.firstName(), pres.lastName());
* }
* for (String firstName : multimap.keySet()) {
* List lastNames = multimap.get(firstName);
* out.println(firstName + ": " + lastNames);
* }}
*
* ... produces output such as: {@code
*
* Zachary: [Taylor]
* John: [Adams, Adams, Tyler, Kennedy] // Remember, Quincy!
* George: [Washington, Bush, Bush]
* Grover: [Cleveland, Cleveland] // Two, non-consecutive terms, rep'ing NJ!
* ...}
*
* Views
*
* Much of the power of the multimap API comes from the view
* collections it provides. These always reflect the latest state of the
* multimap itself. When they support modification, the changes are
* write-through (they automatically update the backing multimap). These
* view collections are:
*
*
* - {@link #asMap}, mentioned above
* - {@link #keys}, {@link #keySet}, {@link #values}, {@link #entries}, which
* are similar to the corresponding view collections of {@link Map}
*
- and, notably, even the collection returned by {@link #get get(key)} is an
* active view of the values corresponding to {@code key}
*
*
* The collections returned by the {@link #replaceValues replaceValues} and
* {@link #removeAll removeAll} methods, which contain values that have just
* been removed from the multimap, are naturally not views.
*
*
Subinterfaces
*
* Instead of using the {@code Multimap} interface directly, prefer the
* subinterfaces {@link ListMultimap} and {@link SetMultimap}. These take their
* names from the fact that the collections they return from {@code get} behave
* like (and, of course, implement) {@link List} and {@link Set}, respectively.
*
*
For example, the "presidents" code snippet above used a {@code
* ListMultimap}; if it had used a {@code SetMultimap} instead, two presidents
* would have vanished, and last names might or might not appear in
* chronological order.
*
*
Warning: instances of type {@code Multimap} may not implement
* {@link Object#equals} in the way you expect. Multimaps containing the same
* key-value pairs, even in the same order, may or may not be equal and may or
* may not have the same {@code hashCode}. The recommended subinterfaces
* provide much stronger guarantees.
*
*
Comparison to a map of collections
*
* Multimaps are commonly used in places where a {@code Map>} would otherwise have appeared. The differences include:
*
*
* - There is no need to populate an empty collection before adding an entry
* with {@link #put put}.
*
- {@code get} never returns {@code null}, only an empty collection.
*
- A key is contained in the multimap if and only if it maps to at least
* one value. Any operation that causes a key to have zero associated
* values has the effect of removing that key from the multimap.
*
- The total entry count is available as {@link #size}.
*
- Many complex operations become easier; for example, {@code
* Collections.min(multimap.values())} finds the smallest value across all
* keys.
*
*
* Implementations
*
* As always, prefer the immutable implementations, {@link
* ImmutableListMultimap} and {@link ImmutableSetMultimap}. General-purpose
* mutable implementations are listed above under "All Known Implementing
* Classes". You can also create a custom multimap, backed by any {@code
* Map} and {@link Collection} types, using the {@link Multimaps#newMultimap
* Multimaps.newMultimap} family of methods. Finally, another popular way to
* obtain a multimap is using {@link Multimaps#index Multimaps.index}. See
* the {@link Multimaps} class for these and other static utilities related
* to multimaps.
*
*
Other Notes
*
* As with {@code Map}, the behavior of a {@code Multimap} is not specified
* if key objects already present in the multimap change in a manner that
* affects {@code equals} comparisons. Use caution if mutable objects are used
* as keys in a {@code Multimap}.
*
*
All methods that modify the multimap are optional. The view collections
* returned by the multimap may or may not be modifiable. Any modification
* method that is not supported will throw {@link
* UnsupportedOperationException}.
*
*
See the Guava User Guide article on
* {@code Multimap}.
