 * This class contains static utility methods that operate on or return objects

 * {@link Iterator}-based method in the {@link Iterators} class.
 * 
 * 
Performance notes: Unless otherwise noted, all of the iterables
 * produced in this class are lazy, which means that their iterators
 * only advance the backing iteration when absolutely necessary.
