/**
* Provides static factory methods for creating selectors and selector scopes.
* Selectors are used for targeting fields and classes.
* Instancio supports two types of selectors: regular and predicate-based.
*
* Regular selectors allow matching by exact class (not including subtypes)
* and field:
*
*
* - {@link #all(Class)}
* - {@link #field(GetMethodSelector)}
* - {@link #field(Class, String)}
* - {@link #field(String)}
*
*
* Predicate selectors, as the name suggests, use a {@link Predicate}
* for matching targets:
*
*
* - {@link #fields()}
* - {@link #types()}
* - {@link #fields(Predicate)}
* - {@link #types(Predicate)}
*
*
* The first two allow constructing predicates using convenience builder
* methods. The last two methods can be used with arbitrary predicates
* where the builders are not sufficient.
*
* It should be noted that regular selectors have higher precedence than
* predicate selectors. See the
* Selectors
* section of the User Guide for more details.
*

* @see SelectorGroup
* @see PredicateSelector
* @see TargetSelector
