 * LinkedHashSet is a variant of HashSet. Its entries are kept in a
 * doubly-linked list. The iteration order is the order in which entries were
 * inserted.
 * 
 * Null elements are allowed, and all the optional Set operations are supported.
 * 
 * Like HashSet, LinkedHashSet is not thread safe, so access by multiple threads
 * must be synchronized by an external mechanism such as
 * {@link Collections#synchronizedSet(Set)}.
