024/**
025 * A strategy for determining whether two instances are considered equivalent, and for computing
026 * hash codes in a manner consistent with that equivalence. Two examples of equivalences are the
027 * {@linkplain #identity() identity equivalence} and the {@linkplain #equals "equals" equivalence}.
028 *
029 * <p><b>For users targeting Android API level 24 or higher:</b> This class will eventually
030 * implement {@code BiPredicate<T, T>} (as it does in the main Guava artifact), but we currently
031 * target a lower API level. In the meantime, if you have support for method references you can use
032 * an equivalence as a bi-predicate like this: {@code myEquivalence::equivalent}.
