/**
* Determines an output value based on an input value; a pre-Java-8 version of {@code
* java.util.function.Function}.
*
* The {@link Functions} class provides common functions and related utilites.
*
*
See the Guava User Guide article on
* the use of {@code
* Function}.
*
*
For Java 8+ users
*
* This interface is now a legacy type. Use {@code java.util.function.Function} (or the
* appropriate primitive specialization such as {@code ToIntFunction}) instead whenever possible.
* Otherwise, at least reduce explicit dependencies on this type by using lambda expressions
* or method references instead of classes, leaving your code easier to migrate in the future.
*
*
To use an existing function (say, named {@code function}) in a context where the other
* type of function is expected, use the method reference {@code function::apply}. A future
* version of {@code nl.topicus.jdbc.shaded.com.google.common.base.Function} will be made to extend {@code
* java.util.function.Function}, making conversion code necessary only in one direction. At that
* time, this interface will be officially discouraged.

Historically, {@code Function} instances in this library have implemented this method to

* disappear. It is best not to depend on it.
