/**
 * A collection that supports order-independent equality, like {@link Set}, but may have duplicate
 * elements. A multiset is also sometimes called a bag.
 *
 * 

Elements of a multiset that are equal to one another are referred to as occurrences of * the same single element. The total number of occurrences of an element in a multiset is called * the count of that element (the terms "frequency" and "multiplicity" are equivalent, but * not used in this API). Since the count of an element is represented as an {@code int}, a multiset * may never contain more than {@link Integer#MAX_VALUE} occurrences of any one element. * *

{@code Multiset} refines the specifications of several methods from {@code Collection}. It * also defines an additional query operation, {@link #count}, which returns the count of an * element. There are five new bulk-modification operations, for example {@link #add(Object, int)}, * to add or remove multiple occurrences of an element at once, or to set the count of an element to * a specific value. These modification operations are optional, but implementations which support * the standard collection operations {@link #add(Object)} or {@link #remove(Object)} are encouraged * to implement the related methods as well. Finally, two collection views are provided: {@link * #elementSet} contains the distinct elements of the multiset "with duplicates collapsed", and * {@link #entrySet} is similar but contains {@link Entry Multiset.Entry} instances, each providing * both a distinct element and the count of that element. * *

In addition to these required methods, implementations of {@code Multiset} are expected to * provide two {@code static} creation methods: {@code create()}, returning an empty multiset, and * {@code create(Iterable)}, returning a multiset containing the given initial * elements. This is simply a refinement of {@code Collection}'s constructor recommendations, * reflecting the new developments of Java 5. * *

As with other collection types, the modification operations are optional, and should throw * {@link UnsupportedOperationException} when they are not implemented. Most implementations should * support either all add operations or none of them, all removal operations or none of them, and if * and only if all of these are supported, the {@code setCount} methods as well. * *

A multiset uses {@link Object#equals} to determine whether two instances should be considered * "the same," unless specified otherwise by the implementation. * *

Common implementations include {@link ImmutableMultiset}, {@link HashMultiset}, and {@link * ConcurrentHashMultiset}. * *

If your values may be zero, negative, or outside the range of an int, you may wish to use * {@link com.google.common.util.concurrent.AtomicLongMap} instead. Note, however, that unlike * {@code Multiset}, {@code AtomicLongMap} does not automatically remove zeros. * *
