| 38 | +/** | |
| 39 | + * A {@link SortedSet} extended with navigation methods reporting | |
| 40 | + * closest matches for given search targets. Methods {@code lower}, | |
| 41 | + * {@code floor}, {@code ceiling}, and {@code higher} return elements | |
| 42 | + * respectively less than, less than or equal, greater than or equal, | |
| 43 | + * and greater than a given element, returning {@code null} if there | |
| 44 | + * is no such element. A {@code NavigableSet} may be accessed and | |
| 45 | + * traversed in either ascending or descending order. The {@code | |
| 46 | + * descendingSet} method returns a view of the set with the senses of | |
| 47 | + * all relational and directional methods inverted. The performance of | |
| 48 | + * ascending operations and views is likely to be faster than that of | |
| 49 | + * descending ones. This interface additionally defines methods | |
| 50 | + * {@code pollFirst} and {@code pollLast} that return and remove the | |
| 51 | + * lowest and highest element, if one exists, else returning {@code | |
| 52 | + * null}. Methods {@code subSet}, {@code headSet}, | |
| 53 | + * and {@code tailSet} differ from the like-named {@code | |
| 54 | + * SortedSet} methods in accepting additional arguments describing | |
| 55 | + * whether lower and upper bounds are inclusive versus exclusive. | |
| 56 | + * Subsets of any {@code NavigableSet} must implement the {@code | |
| 57 | + * NavigableSet} interface. | |
| 58 | + * | |
| 59 | + * <p> The return values of navigation methods may be ambiguous in | |
| 60 | + * implementations that permit {@code null} elements. However, even | |
| 61 | + * in this case the result can be disambiguated by checking | |
| 62 | + * {@code contains(null)}. To avoid such issues, implementations of | |
| 63 | + * this interface are encouraged to <em>not</em> permit insertion of | |
| 64 | + * {@code null} elements. (Note that sorted sets of {@link | |
| 65 | + * Comparable} elements intrinsically do not permit {@code null}.) | |
| 66 | + * | |
| 67 | + * <p>Methods | |
| 68 | + * {@link #subSet(Object, Object) subSet(E, E)}, | |
| 69 | + * {@link #headSet(Object) headSet(E)}, and | |
| 70 | + * {@link #tailSet(Object) tailSet(E)} | |
| 71 | + * are specified to return {@code SortedSet} to allow existing | |
| 72 | + * implementations of {@code SortedSet} to be compatibly retrofitted to | |
| 73 | + * implement {@code NavigableSet}, but extensions and implementations | |
| 74 | + * of this interface are encouraged to override these methods to return | |
| 75 | + * {@code NavigableSet}. | |
