/**
 * An integer that, for each of the given sequences, is either a valid index or is equal to the
 * sequence's length.
 *
 * The 
 * {@code Arrays.binarySearch} method is declared as
 *
 * 
{@code
 * class Arrays {
 *   int binarySearch(Object[] a, @IndexFor("#1") int fromIndex, @IndexOrHigh("#1") int toIndex, Object key)
 * }
 * }
 *
 * Writing {@code @IndexOrHigh("arr")} is equivalent to writing {@link NonNegative @NonNegative}
 * {@link LTEqLengthOf @LTEqLengthOf("arr")}, and that is how it is treated internally by the
 * checker. Thus, if you write an {@code @IndexFor("arr")} annotation, you might see warnings about
 * {@code @NonNegative} or {@code @LTEqLengthOf}.
 *
 * @see NonNegative
 * @see LTLengthOf
