/**
 * A collection that associates an ordered pair of keys, called a row key and a
 * column key, with a single value. A table may be sparse, with only a small
 * fraction of row key / column key pairs possessing a corresponding value.
 *
 * <p>The mappings corresponding to a given row key may be viewed as a {@link
 * Map} whose keys are the columns. The reverse is also available, associating a
 * column with a row key / value map. Note that, in some implementations, data
 * access by column key may have fewer supported operations or worse performance
 * than data access by row key.
 *
 * <p>The methods returning collections or maps always return views of the
 * underlying table. Updating the table can change the contents of those
 * collections, and updating the collections will change the table.
 *
 * <p>All methods that modify the table are optional, and the views returned by
 * the table may or may not be modifiable. When modification isn't supported,
 * those methods will throw an {@link UnsupportedOperationException}.
