/**
* A {@link Multiset} which maintains the ordering of its elements, according to
* either their natural order or an explicit {@link Comparator}. This order is
* reflected when iterating over the sorted multiset, either directly, or through
* its {@code elementSet} or {@code entrySet} views. In all cases,
* this implementation uses {@link Comparable#compareTo} or
* {@link Comparator#compare} instead of {@link Object#equals} to determine
* equivalence of instances.
*
* Warning: The comparison must be consistent with equals as
* explained by the {@link Comparable} class specification. Otherwise, the
* resulting multiset will violate the {@link Collection} contract, which it is
* specified in terms of {@link Object#equals}.
*
*
See the Guava User Guide article on
