021/**
022 * Static convenience methods that help a method or constructor check whether it was invoked
023 * correctly (whether its <i>preconditions</i> have been met). These methods generally accept a
024 * {@code boolean} expression which is expected to be {@code true} (or in the case of {@code
025 * checkNotNull}, an object reference which is expected to be non-null). When {@code false} (or
026 * {@code null}) is passed instead, the {@code Preconditions} method throws an unchecked exception,
027 * which helps the calling method communicate to <i>its</i> caller that <i>that</i> caller has made
028 * a mistake. Example: <pre>   {@code
029 *
030 *   /**
031 *    * Returns the positive square root of the given value.
032 *    *
033 *    * @throws IllegalArgumentException if the value is negative
034 *    *}{@code /
035 *   public static double sqrt(double value) {
036 *     Preconditions.checkArgument(value >= 0.0, "negative value: %s", value);
037 *     // calculate the square root
038 *   }
039 *
040 *   void exampleBadCaller() {
041 *     double d = sqrt(-1.0);
042 *   }}</pre>
043 *
044 * In this example, {@code checkArgument} throws an {@code IllegalArgumentException} to indicate
045 * that {@code exampleBadCaller} made an error in <i>its</i> call to {@code sqrt}.
046 *
047 * <h3>Warning about performance</h3>
048 *
049 * <p>The goal of this class is to improve readability of code, but in some circumstances this may
050 * come at a significant performance cost. Remember that parameter values for message construction
051 * must all be computed eagerly, and autoboxing and varargs array creation may happen as well, even
052 * when the precondition check then succeeds (as it should almost always do in production). In some
053 * circumstances these wasted CPU cycles and allocations can add up to a real problem.
054 * Performance-sensitive precondition checks can always be converted to the customary form:
055 * <pre>   {@code
056 *
057 *   if (value < 0.0) {
058 *     throw new IllegalArgumentException("negative value: " + value);
059 *   }}</pre>
060 *
061 * <h3>Other types of preconditions</h3>
062 *
063 * <p>Not every type of precondition failure is supported by these methods. Continue to throw
064 * standard JDK exceptions such as {@link java.util.NoSuchElementException} or {@link
065 * UnsupportedOperationException} in the situations they are intended for.
066 *
067 * <h3>Non-preconditions</h3>
068 *
069 * <p>It is of course possible to use the methods of this class to check for invalid conditions
070 * which are <i>not the caller's fault</i>. Doing so is <b>not recommended</b> because it is
071 * misleading to future readers of the code and of stack traces. See
072 * <a href="http://code.google.com/p/guava-libraries/wiki/ConditionalFailuresExplained">Conditional
073 * failures explained</a> in the Guava User Guide for more advice.
074 *
075 * <h3>{@code java.util.Objects.requireNonNull()}</h3>
076 *
077 * <p>Projects which use {@code com.google.common} should generally avoid the use of {@link
078 * java.util.Objects#requireNonNull(Object)}. Instead, use whichever of {@link
079 * #checkNotNull(Object)} or {@link Verify#verifyNotNull(Object)} is appropriate to the situation.
080 * (The same goes for the message-accepting overloads.)
081 *
082 * <h3>Only {@code %s} is supported</h3>
083 *
084 * <p>In {@code Preconditions} error message template strings, only the {@code "%s"} specifier is
085 * supported, not the full range of {@link java.util.Formatter} specifiers.
086 *
087 * <h3>More information</h3>
088 *
089 * <p>See the Guava User Guide on
090 * <a href="http://code.google.com/p/guava-libraries/wiki/PreconditionsExplained">using {@code
091 * Preconditions}</a>.
