      29  * A collection that contains no duplicate elements.  More formally, sets
      30  * contain no pair of elements {@code e1} and {@code e2} such that
      31  * {@code e1.equals(e2)}, and at most one null element.  As implied by
      32  * its name, this interface models the mathematical <i>set</i> abstraction.
      33  *
      34  * <p>The {@code Set} interface places additional stipulations, beyond those
      35  * inherited from the {@code Collection} interface, on the contracts of all
      36  * constructors and on the contracts of the {@code add}, {@code equals} and
      37  * {@code hashCode} methods.  Declarations for other inherited methods are
      38  * also included here for convenience.  (The specifications accompanying these
      39  * declarations have been tailored to the {@code Set} interface, but they do
      40  * not contain any additional stipulations.)
      41  *
      42  * <p>The additional stipulation on constructors is, not surprisingly,
      43  * that all constructors must create a set that contains no duplicate elements
      44  * (as defined above).
      45  *
      46  * <p>Note: Great care must be exercised if mutable objects are used as set
      47  * elements.  The behavior of a set is not specified if the value of an object
      48  * is changed in a manner that affects {@code equals} comparisons while the
      49  * object is an element in the set.  A special case of this prohibition is
      50  * that it is not permissible for a set to contain itself as an element.
      51  *
      52  * <p>Some set implementations have restrictions on the elements that
      53  * they may contain.  For example, some implementations prohibit null elements,
      54  * and some have restrictions on the types of their elements.  Attempting to
      55  * add an ineligible element throws an unchecked exception, typically
      56  * {@code NullPointerException} or {@code ClassCastException}.  Attempting
      57  * to query the presence of an ineligible element may throw an exception,
      58  * or it may simply return false; some implementations will exhibit the former
      59  * behavior and some will exhibit the latter.  More generally, attempting an
      60  * operation on an ineligible element whose completion would not result in
      61  * the insertion of an ineligible element into the set may throw an
      62  * exception or it may succeed, at the option of the implementation.
      63  * Such exceptions are marked as "optional" in the specification for this
      64  * interface.
      65  *
      66  * <h2><a id="unmodifiable">Unmodifiable Sets</a></h2>
      67  * <p>The {@link Set#of(Object...) Set.of} and
      68  * {@link Set#copyOf Set.copyOf} static factory methods
      69  * provide a convenient way to create unmodifiable sets. The {@code Set}
      70  * instances created by these methods have the following characteristics:
      71  *
      72  * <ul>
      73  * <li>They are <a href="Collection.html#unmodifiable"><i>unmodifiable</i></a>. Elements cannot
      74  * be added or removed. Calling any mutator method on the Set
      75  * will always cause {@code UnsupportedOperationException} to be thrown.
      76  * However, if the contained elements are themselves mutable, this may cause the
      77  * Set to behave inconsistently or its contents to appear to change.
      78  * <li>They disallow {@code null} elements. Attempts to create them with
      79  * {@code null} elements result in {@code NullPointerException}.
      80  * <li>They are serializable if all elements are serializable.
      81  * <li>They reject duplicate elements at creation time. Duplicate elements
      82  * passed to a static factory method result in {@code IllegalArgumentException}.
      83  * <li>The iteration order of set elements is unspecified and is subject to change.
      84  * <li>They are <a href="../lang/doc-files/ValueBased.html">value-based</a>.
      85  * Callers should make no assumptions about the identity of the returned instances.
      86  * Factories are free to create new instances or reuse existing ones. Therefore,
      87  * identity-sensitive operations on these instances (reference equality ({@code ==}),
      88  * identity hash code, and synchronization) are unreliable and should be avoided.
      89  * <li>They are serialized as specified on the
      90  * <a href="{@docRoot}/serialized-form.html#java.util.CollSer">Serialized Form</a>
      91  * page.
