/**
* Represents a JSON value. This can be a JSON object, an array,
* a number, a string, or one of the literals
* true, false, and null.
*
* The literals true, false, and null are
* represented by the constants {@link #TRUE}, {@link #FALSE}, and {@link #NULL}.
*
*
* JSON objects and arrays are represented by the subtypes
* {@link JsonObject} and {@link JsonArray}. Instances of these types can be created using the
* public constructors of these classes.
*
*
* Instances that represent JSON numbers, strings and
* boolean values can be created using the static factory methods
* {@link #valueOf(String)}, {@link #valueOf(long)}, {@link #valueOf(double)}, etc.
*
*
* In order to find out whether an instance of this class is of a certain type, the methods
* {@link #isObject()}, {@link #isArray()}, {@link #isString()}, {@link #isNumber()} etc. can be
* used.
*
*
* If the type of a JSON value is known, the methods {@link #asObject()}, {@link #asArray()},
* {@link #asString()}, {@link #asInt()}, etc. can be used to get this value directly in the
* appropriate target type.
*
*
* This class is not supposed to be extended by clients.
