/**
* The <code>String</code> class represents character strings. All
* string literals in Java programs, such as <code>"abc"</code>, are
* implemented as instances of this class.
* <p>
* Strings are constant; their values cannot be changed after they
* are created. String buffers support mutable strings.
* Because String objects are immutable they can be shared. For example:
* <p><blockquote><pre>
* String str = "abc";
* </pre></blockquote><p>
* is equivalent to:
* <p><blockquote><pre>
* char data[] = {'a', 'b', 'c'};
* String str = new String(data);
* </pre></blockquote><p>
* Here are some more examples of how strings can be used:
* <p><blockquote><pre>
* System.out.println("abc");
* String cde = "cde";
* System.out.println("abc" + cde);
* String c = "abc".substring(2,3);
* String d = cde.substring(1, 2);
* </pre></blockquote>
* <p>
* The class <code>String</code> includes methods for examining
* individual characters of the sequence, for comparing strings, for
* searching strings, for extracting substrings, and for creating a
* copy of a string with all characters translated to uppercase or to
* lowercase. Case mapping is based on the Unicode Standard version
* specified by the {@link java.lang.Character Character} class.
* <p>
* The Java language provides special support for the string
* concatenation operator ( + ), and for conversion of
* other objects to strings. String concatenation is implemented
* through the <code>StringBuilder</code>(or <code>StringBuffer</code>)
* class and its <code>append</code> method.
* String conversions are implemented through the method
* <code>toString</code>, defined by <code>Object</code> and
* inherited by all classes in Java. For additional information on
* string concatenation and conversion, see Gosling, Joy, and Steele,
* <i>The Java Language Specification</i>.
*
* <p> Unless otherwise noted, passing a <tt>null</tt> argument to a constructor
* or method in this class will cause a {@link NullPointerException} to be
* thrown.
*
* <p>A <code>String</code> represents a string in the UTF-16 format
* in which <em>supplementary characters</em> are represented by <em>surrogate
* pairs</em> (see the section <a href="Character.html#unicode">Unicode
* Character Representations</a> in the <code>Character</code> class for
* more information).
* Index values refer to <code>char</code> code units, so a supplementary
* character uses two positions in a <code>String</code>.
* <p>The <code>String</code> class provides methods for dealing with
* Unicode code points (i.e., characters), in addition to those for
* dealing with Unicode code units (i.e., <code>char</code> values).
