/**
 * A discouraged (but not deprecated) precursor to Java's superior {@link Stream} library.
 *
 * <p>The following types of methods are provided:
 *
 * <ul>
 * <li>chaining methods which return a new {@code FluentIterable} based in some way on the contents
 *     of the current one (for example {@link #transform})
 * <li>element extraction methods which facilitate the retrieval of certain elements (for example
 *     {@link #last})
 * <li>query methods which answer questions about the {@code FluentIterable}'s contents (for example
 *     {@link #anyMatch})
 * <li>conversion methods which copy the {@code FluentIterable}'s contents into a new collection or
 *     array (for example {@link #toList})
 * </ul>
 *
 * <p>Several lesser-used features are currently available only as static methods on the {@link
 * Iterables} class.
 *
 * <a name="streams"></a>
 * <h3>Comparison to streams</h3>
 *
 * <p>{@link Stream} is similar to this class, but generally more powerful, and certainly more
 * standard. Key differences include:
 *
 * <ul>
 * <li>A stream is <i>single-use</i>; it becomes invalid as soon as any "terminal operation" such as
 *     {@code findFirst()} or {@code iterator()} is invoked. (Even though {@code Stream} contains
 *     all the right method <i>signatures</i> to implement {@link Iterable}, it does not actually do
 *     so, to avoid implying repeat-iterability.) {@code FluentIterable}, on the other hand, is
 *     multiple-use, and does implement {@link Iterable}.
 * <li>Streams offer many features not found here, including {@code min/max}, {@code distinct},
 *     {@code reduce}, {@code sorted}, the very powerful {@code collect}, and built-in support for
 *     parallelizing stream operations.
 * <li>{@code FluentIterable} contains several features not available on {@code Stream}, which are
 *     noted in the method descriptions below.
 * <li>Streams include primitive-specialized variants such as {@code IntStream}, the use of which is
 *     strongly recommended.
 * <li>Streams are standard Java, not requiring a third-party dependency.
 * </ul>
 *
 * <h3>Example</h3>
 *
 * <p>Here is an example that accepts a list from a database call, filters it based on a predicate,
 * transforms it by invoking {@code toString()} on each element, and returns the first 10 elements
 * as a {@code List}:
 *
 * <pre>{@code
 * ImmutableList<String> results =
 *     FluentIterable.from(database.getClientList())
 *         .filter(Client::isActiveInLastMonth)
 *         .transform(Object::toString)
 *         .limit(10)
 *         .toList();
 * }</pre>
 *
 * The approximate stream equivalent is:
 *
 * <pre>{@code
 * List<String> results =
 *     database.getClientList()
 *         .stream()
 *         .filter(Client::isActiveInLastMonth)
 *         .map(Object::toString)
 *         .limit(10)
 *         .collect(Collectors.toList());
 * }</pre>
