/**
 * This package contains generic collection interfaces and implementations, and other utilities for
 * working with collections. It is a part of the open-source Guava library.
 *
 * Collection Types
 *
 * 
 *   {@link com.google.common.collect.BiMap}
 *   
An extension of {@link java.util.Map} that guarantees the uniqueness of its values as well
 *       as that of its keys. This is sometimes called an "invertible map," since the restriction on
 *       values enables it to support an {@linkplain com.google.common.collect.BiMap#inverse inverse
 *       view} -- which is another instance of {@code BiMap}.
 *   
{@link com.google.common.collect.Multiset}
 *   
An extension of {@link java.util.Collection} that may contain duplicate values like a
 *       {@link java.util.List}, yet has order-independent equality like a {@link java.util.Set}.
 *       One typical use for a multiset is to represent a histogram.
 *   
{@link com.google.common.collect.Multimap}
 *   
A new type, which is similar to {@link java.util.Map}, but may contain multiple entries
 *       with the same key. Some behaviors of {@link com.google.common.collect.Multimap} are left
 *       unspecified and are provided only by the subtypes mentioned below.
 *   
{@link com.google.common.collect.ListMultimap}
 *   
An extension of {@link com.google.common.collect.Multimap} which permits duplicate entries,
 *       supports random access of values for a particular key, and has partially order-dependent
 *       equality as defined by {@link com.google.common.collect.ListMultimap#equals(Object)}.
 *       {@code ListMultimap} takes its name from the fact that the {@linkplain
 *       com.google.common.collect.ListMultimap#get collection of values} associated with a given
 *       key fulfills the {@link java.util.List} contract.
 *   
{@link com.google.common.collect.SetMultimap}
 *   
An extension of {@link com.google.common.collect.Multimap} which has order-independent
 *       equality and does not allow duplicate entries; that is, while a key may appear twice in a
 *       {@code SetMultimap}, each must map to a different value. {@code SetMultimap} takes its name
 *       from the fact that the {@linkplain com.google.common.collect.SetMultimap#get collection of
 *       values} associated with a given key fulfills the {@link java.util.Set} contract.
 *   
{@link com.google.common.collect.SortedSetMultimap}
 *   
An extension of {@link com.google.common.collect.SetMultimap} for which the {@linkplain
 *       com.google.common.collect.SortedSetMultimap#get collection values} associated with a given
 *       key is a {@link java.util.SortedSet}.
 *   
{@link com.google.common.collect.Table}
 *   
A new type, which is similar to {@link java.util.Map}, but which indexes its values by an
 *       ordered pair of keys, a row key and column key.
 *   
{@link com.google.common.collect.ClassToInstanceMap}
 *   
An extension of {@link java.util.Map} that associates a raw type with an instance of that
 *       type.
 *
