* A pair of elements.
*
*
* This inferface gives access to a pair of elements <l, r>, where
* l is the {@linkplain #left() left element} and r is the
* {@linkplain #right() right element}. Mutability is optional.
*
*
* Since pairs have many different interpretation depending on the context, this interface offers
* alternative but equivalent access methods based on {@linkplain #first()
* first}/{@linkplain #second() second} and {@linkplain #key() key}/{@linkplain #value() value}. All
* such methods have default implementations that delegates to the standard methods. Implementations
* need only to provide {@link #left()} and {@link #right()}, and possibly {@link #left(Object)} and
* {@link #right(Object)} for mutability.
*
*
* Setters return the instance, and are thus chainable. You can write
*
*
* pair.left(0).right(1)
*
*
* and, if necessary, pass this value to a method.
*
