/**
 * A mutable sequence of characters.  This class provides an API compatible
 * with {@code StringBuffer}, but with no guarantee of synchronization.
 * This class is designed for use as a drop-in replacement for
 * {@code StringBuffer} in places where the string buffer was being
 * used by a single thread (as is generally the case).   Where possible,
 * it is recommended that this class be used in preference to
 * {@code StringBuffer} as it will be faster under most implementations.
 *
 * <p>The principal operations on a {@code StringBuilder} are the
 * {@code append} and {@code insert} methods, which are
 * overloaded so as to accept data of any type. Each effectively
 * converts a given datum to a string and then appends or inserts the
 * characters of that string to the string builder. The
 * {@code append} method always adds these characters at the end
 * of the builder; the {@code insert} method adds the characters at
 * a specified point.
 * <p>
 * For example, if {@code z} refers to a string builder object
 * whose current contents are "{@code start}", then
 * the method call {@code z.append("le")} would cause the string
 * builder to contain "{@code startle}", whereas
 * {@code z.insert(4, "le")} would alter the string builder to
 * contain "{@code starlet}".
 * <p>
 * In general, if sb refers to an instance of a {@code StringBuilder},
 * then {@code sb.append(x)} has the same effect as
 * {@code sb.insert(sb.length(), x)}.
 * <p>
 * Every string builder has a capacity. As long as the length of the
 * character sequence contained in the string builder does not exceed
 * the capacity, it is not necessary to allocate a new internal
 * buffer. If the internal buffer overflows, it is automatically made larger.
 *
 * <p>Instances of {@code StringBuilder} are not safe for
 * use by multiple threads. If such synchronization is required then it is
 * recommended that {@link java.lang.StringBuffer} be used.
 *
 * <p>Unless otherwise noted, passing a {@code null} argument to a constructor
 * or method in this class will cause a {@link NullPointerException} to be
 * thrown.
