026/**
027 * A function from {@code A} to {@code B} with an associated <i>reverse</i> function from {@code B}
028 * to {@code A}; used for converting back and forth between <i>different representations of the same
029 * information</i>.
030 *
031 * <h3>Invertibility</h3>
032 *
033 * <p>The reverse operation <b>may</b> be a strict <i>inverse</i> (meaning that {@code
034 * converter.reverse().convert(converter.convert(a)).equals(a)} is always true). However, it is very
035 * common (perhaps <i>more</i> common) for round-trip conversion to be <i>lossy</i>. Consider an
036 * example round-trip using {@link com.google.common.primitives.Doubles#stringConverter}:
037 *
038 * <ol>
039 * <li>{@code stringConverter().convert("1.00")} returns the {@code Double} value {@code 1.0}
040 * <li>{@code stringConverter().reverse().convert(1.0)} returns the string {@code "1.0"} --
041 *     <i>not</i> the same string ({@code "1.00"}) we started with
042 * </ol>
043 *
044 * <p>Note that it should still be the case that the round-tripped and original objects are
045 * <i>similar</i>.
046 *
047 * <h3>Nullability</h3>
048 *
049 * <p>A converter always converts {@code null} to {@code null} and non-null references to non-null
050 * references. It would not make sense to consider {@code null} and a non-null reference to be
051 * "different representations of the same information", since one is distinguishable from
052 * <i>missing</i> information and the other is not. The {@link #convert} method handles this null
053 * behavior for all converters; implementations of {@link #doForward} and {@link #doBackward} are
054 * guaranteed to never be passed {@code null}, and must never return {@code null}.
055 *
056 *
057 * <h3>Common ways to use</h3>
058 *
059 * <p>Getting a converter:
060 *
061 * <ul>
062 * <li>Use a provided converter implementation, such as {@link Enums#stringConverter}, {@link
063 *     com.google.common.primitives.Ints#stringConverter Ints.stringConverter} or the {@linkplain
064 *     #reverse reverse} views of these.
065 * <li>Convert between specific preset values using {@link
066 *     com.google.common.collect.Maps#asConverter Maps.asConverter}. For example, use this to create
067 *     a "fake" converter for a unit test. It is unnecessary (and confusing) to <i>mock</i> the
068 *     {@code Converter} type using a mocking framework.
069 * <li>Extend this class and implement its {@link #doForward} and {@link #doBackward} methods.
070 * <li><b>Java 8 users:</b> you may prefer to pass two lambda expressions or method references to
071 *     the {@link #from from} factory method.
072 * </ul>
073 *
074 * <p>Using a converter:
075 *
076 * <ul>
077 * <li>Convert one instance in the "forward" direction using {@code converter.convert(a)}.
078 * <li>Convert multiple instances "forward" using {@code converter.convertAll(as)}.
079 * <li>Convert in the "backward" direction using {@code converter.reverse().convert(b)} or {@code
080 *     converter.reverse().convertAll(bs)}.
081 * <li>Use {@code converter} or {@code converter.reverse()} anywhere a {@link
082 *     java.util.function.Function} is accepted (for example {@link Stream#map}).
083 * <li><b>Do not</b> call {@link #doForward} or {@link #doBackward} directly; these exist only to be
084 *     overridden.
085 * </ul>
086 *
087 * <h3>Example</h3>
088 *
089 * <pre>
090 *   return new Converter&lt;Integer, String&gt;() {
091 *     protected String doForward(Integer i) {
092 *       return Integer.toHexString(i);
093 *     }
094 *
095 *     protected Integer doBackward(String s) {
096 *       return parseUnsignedInt(s, 16);
097 *     }
098 *   };</pre>
099 *
100 * <p>An alternative using Java 8:
101 *
102 * <pre>{@code
103 * return Converter.from(
104 *     Integer::toHexString,
105 *     s -> parseUnsignedInt(s, 16));
106 * }</pre>
