+/**
+ * A modifiable set of name/value mappings. Names are unique, non-null strings. Values may
+ * be any mix of {@link JSONObject JSONObjects}, {@link JSONArray JSONArrays}, Strings,
+ * Booleans, Integers, Longs, Doubles or {@link #NULL}. Values may not be {@code null},
+ * {@link Double#isNaN() NaNs}, {@link Double#isInfinite() infinities}, or of any type not
+ * listed here.
+ * <p>
+ * This class can coerce values to another type when requested.
+ * <ul>
+ * <li>When the requested type is a boolean, strings will be coerced using a
+ * case-insensitive comparison to "true" and "false".
+ * <li>When the requested type is a double, other {@link Number} types will be coerced
+ * using {@link Number#doubleValue() doubleValue}. Strings that can be coerced using
+ * {@link Double#valueOf(String)} will be.
+ * <li>When the requested type is an int, other {@link Number} types will be coerced using
+ * {@link Number#intValue() intValue}. Strings that can be coerced using
+ * {@link Double#valueOf(String)} will be, and then cast to int.
+ * <li><a id="lossy">When the requested type is a long, other {@link Number} types will be
+ * coerced using {@link Number#longValue() longValue}. Strings that can be coerced using
+ * {@link Double#valueOf(String)} will be, and then cast to long. This two-step conversion
+ * is lossy for very large values. For example, the string "9223372036854775806" yields
+ * the long 9223372036854775807.</a>
+ * <li>When the requested type is a String, other non-null values will be coerced using
+ * {@link String#valueOf(Object)}. Although null cannot be coerced, the sentinel value
+ * {@link JSONObject#NULL} is coerced to the string "null".
+ * </ul>
+ * <p>
+ * This class can look up both mandatory and optional values:
+ * <ul>
+ * <li>Use <code>get<i>Type</i>()</code> to retrieve a mandatory value. This fails with a
+ * {@code JSONException} if the requested name has no value or if the value cannot be
+ * coerced to the requested type.
+ * <li>Use <code>opt<i>Type</i>()</code> to retrieve an optional value. This returns a
+ * system- or user-supplied default if the requested name has no value or if the value
+ * cannot be coerced to the requested type.
+ * </ul>
+ * <p>
+ * <strong>Warning:</strong> this class represents null in two incompatible ways: the
+ * standard Java {@code null} reference, and the sentinel value {@link JSONObject#NULL}.
+ * In particular, calling {@code put(name, null)} removes the named entry from the object
+ * but {@code put(name, JSONObject.NULL)} stores an entry whose value is
+ * {@code JSONObject.NULL}.
+ * <p>
+ * Instances of this class are not thread safe. Although this class is nonfinal, it was
+ * not designed for inheritance and should not be subclassed. In particular, self-use by
+ * overrideable methods is not specified. See <i>Effective Java</i> Item 17, "Design and
+ * Document or inheritance or else prohibit it" for further information.

+/**
+ * Implements {@link JSONObject#toString} and {@link JSONArray#toString}. Most application
+ * developers should use those methods directly and disregard this API. For example:<pre>
+ * JSONObject object = ...
+ * String json = object.toString();</pre>
+ * <p>
+ * Stringers only encode well-formed JSON strings. In particular:
+ * <ul>
+ * <li>The stringer must have exactly one top-level array or object.
+ * <li>Lexical scopes must be balanced: every call to {@link #array} must have a matching
+ * call to {@link #endArray} and every call to {@link #object} must have a matching call
+ * to {@link #endObject}.
+ * <li>Arrays may not contain keys (property names).
+ * <li>Objects must alternate keys (property names) and values.
+ * <li>Values are inserted with either literal {@link #value(Object) value} calls, or by
+ * nesting arrays or objects.
+ * </ul>
+ * Calls that would result in a malformed JSON string will fail with a
+ * {@link JSONException}.
+ * <p>
+ * This class provides no facility for pretty-printing (ie. indenting) output. To encode
+ * indented output, use {@link JSONObject#toString(int)} or
+ * {@link JSONArray#toString(int)}.
+ * <p>
+ * Some implementations of the API support at most 20 levels of nesting. Attempts to
+ * create more than 20 levels of nesting may fail with a {@link JSONException}.
+ * <p>
+ * Each stringer may be used to encode a single top level value. Instances of this class
+ * are not thread safe. Although this class is nonfinal, it was not designed for
+ * inheritance and should not be subclassed. In particular, self-use by overrideable
+ * methods is not specified. See <i>Effective Java</i> Item 17, "Design and Document or
+ * inheritance or else prohibit it" for further information.

+ * string into the corresponding object. Most clients of this class will use only need the
+ * {@link #JSONTokener(String) constructor} and {@link #nextValue} method. Example usage:
+ * <pre>
+ * String json = "{"
+ *         + "  \"query\": \"Pizza\", "
+ *         + "  \"locations\": [ 94043, 90210 ] "

+ * JSONObject object = (JSONObject) new JSONTokener(json).nextValue();
+ * String query = object.getString("query");
+ * JSONArray locations = object.getJSONArray("locations");</pre>
+ * <p>
+ * For best interoperability and performance use JSON that complies with RFC 4627, such as
+ * that generated by {@link JSONStringer}. For legacy reasons this parser is lenient, so a
+ * successful parse does not indicate that the input string was valid JSON. All the
+ * following syntax errors will be ignored:
+ * <ul>
+ * <li>End of line comments starting with {@code //} or {@code #} and ending with a
+ * newline character.
+ * <li>C-style comments starting with {@code /*} and ending with {@code *}{@code /}. Such
+ * comments may not be nested.
+ * <li>Strings that are unquoted or {@code 'single quoted'}.
+ * <li>Hexadecimal integers prefixed with {@code 0x} or {@code 0X}.
+ * <li>Octal integers prefixed with {@code 0}.
+ * <li>Array elements separated by {@code ;}.
+ * <li>Unnecessary array separators. These are interpreted as if null was the omitted
+ * value.
+ * <li>Key-value pairs separated by {@code =} or {@code =>}.
+ * <li>Key-value pairs separated by {@code ;}.
+ * </ul>
+ * <p>
+ * Each tokener may be used to parse a single JSON string. Instances of this class are not
+ * thread safe. Although this class is nonfinal, it was not designed for inheritance and
+ * should not be subclassed. In particular, self-use by overrideable methods is not

+/**
+ * A modifiable set of name/value mappings. Names are unique, non-null strings. Values may
+ * be any mix of {@link JSONObject JSONObjects}, {@link JSONArray JSONArrays}, Strings,
+ * Booleans, Integers, Longs, Doubles or {@link #NULL}. Values may not be {@code null},
+ * {@link Double#isNaN() NaNs}, {@link Double#isInfinite() infinities}, or of any type not
+ * listed here.
+ * <p>
+ * This class can coerce values to another type when requested.
+ * <ul>
+ * <li>When the requested type is a boolean, strings will be coerced using a
+ * case-insensitive comparison to "true" and "false".
+ * <li>When the requested type is a double, other {@link Number} types will be coerced
+ * using {@link Number#doubleValue() doubleValue}. Strings that can be coerced using
+ * {@link Double#valueOf(String)} will be.
+ * <li>When the requested type is an int, other {@link Number} types will be coerced using
+ * {@link Number#intValue() intValue}. Strings that can be coerced using
+ * {@link Double#valueOf(String)} will be, and then cast to int.
+ * <li><a id="lossy">When the requested type is a long, other {@link Number} types will be
+ * coerced using {@link Number#longValue() longValue}. Strings that can be coerced using
+ * {@link Double#valueOf(String)} will be, and then cast to long. This two-step conversion
+ * is lossy for very large values. For example, the string "9223372036854775806" yields
+ * the long 9223372036854775807.</a>
+ * <li>When the requested type is a String, other non-null values will be coerced using
+ * {@link String#valueOf(Object)}. Although null cannot be coerced, the sentinel value
+ * {@link JSONObject#NULL} is coerced to the string "null".
+ * </ul>
+ * <p>
+ * This class can look up both mandatory and optional values:
+ * <ul>
+ * <li>Use <code>get<i>Type</i>()</code> to retrieve a mandatory value. This fails with a
+ * {@code JSONException} if the requested name has no value or if the value cannot be
+ * coerced to the requested type.
+ * <li>Use <code>opt<i>Type</i>()</code> to retrieve an optional value. This returns a
+ * system- or user-supplied default if the requested name has no value or if the value
+ * cannot be coerced to the requested type.
+ * </ul>
+ * <p>
+ * <strong>Warning:</strong> this class represents null in two incompatible ways: the
+ * standard Java {@code null} reference, and the sentinel value {@link JSONObject#NULL}.
+ * In particular, calling {@code put(name, null)} removes the named entry from the object
+ * but {@code put(name, JSONObject.NULL)} stores an entry whose value is
+ * {@code JSONObject.NULL}.
+ * <p>
+ * Instances of this class are not thread safe. Although this class is nonfinal, it was
+ * not designed for inheritance and should not be subclassed. In particular, self-use by
+ * overrideable methods is not specified. See <i>Effective Java</i> Item 17, "Design and
+ * Document or inheritance or else prohibit it" for further information.

+/**
+ * Implements {@link JSONObject#toString} and {@link JSONArray#toString}. Most application
+ * developers should use those methods directly and disregard this API. For example:<pre>
+ * JSONObject object = ...
+ * String json = object.toString();</pre>
+ * <p>
+ * Stringers only encode well-formed JSON strings. In particular:
+ * <ul>
+ * <li>The stringer must have exactly one top-level array or object.
+ * <li>Lexical scopes must be balanced: every call to {@link #array} must have a matching
+ * call to {@link #endArray} and every call to {@link #object} must have a matching call
+ * to {@link #endObject}.
+ * <li>Arrays may not contain keys (property names).
+ * <li>Objects must alternate keys (property names) and values.
+ * <li>Values are inserted with either literal {@link #value(Object) value} calls, or by
+ * nesting arrays or objects.
+ * </ul>
+ * Calls that would result in a malformed JSON string will fail with a
+ * {@link JSONException}.
+ * <p>
+ * This class provides no facility for pretty-printing (ie. indenting) output. To encode
+ * indented output, use {@link JSONObject#toString(int)} or
+ * {@link JSONArray#toString(int)}.
+ * <p>
+ * Some implementations of the API support at most 20 levels of nesting. Attempts to
+ * create more than 20 levels of nesting may fail with a {@link JSONException}.
+ * <p>
+ * Each stringer may be used to encode a single top level value. Instances of this class
+ * are not thread safe. Although this class is nonfinal, it was not designed for
+ * inheritance and should not be subclassed. In particular, self-use by overrideable
+ * methods is not specified. See <i>Effective Java</i> Item 17, "Design and Document or
+ * inheritance or else prohibit it" for further information.

+ * Parses a JSON (<a href="https://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc4627.txt">RFC 4627</a>) encoded
+ * string into the corresponding object. Most clients of this class will use only need the
+ * {@link #JSONTokener(String) constructor} and {@link #nextValue} method. Example usage:
+ * <pre>
+ * String json = "{"
+ *         + "  \"query\": \"Pizza\", "
+ *         + "  \"locations\": [ 94043, 90210 ] "
+ *         + "}";
+ *
+ * JSONObject object = (JSONObject) new JSONTokener(json).nextValue();
+ * String query = object.getString("query");
+ * JSONArray locations = object.getJSONArray("locations");</pre>
+ * <p>
+ * For best interoperability and performance use JSON that complies with RFC 4627, such as
+ * that generated by {@link JSONStringer}. For legacy reasons this parser is lenient, so a
+ * successful parse does not indicate that the input string was valid JSON. All the
+ * following syntax errors will be ignored:
+ * <ul>
+ * <li>End of line comments starting with {@code //} or {@code #} and ending with a
+ * newline character.
+ * <li>C-style comments starting with {@code /*} and ending with {@code *}{@code /}. Such
+ * comments may not be nested.
+ * <li>Strings that are unquoted or {@code 'single quoted'}.
+ * <li>Hexadecimal integers prefixed with {@code 0x} or {@code 0X}.
+ * <li>Octal integers prefixed with {@code 0}.
+ * <li>Array elements separated by {@code ;}.
+ * <li>Unnecessary array separators. These are interpreted as if null was the omitted
+ * value.
+ * <li>Key-value pairs separated by {@code =} or {@code =>}.
+ * <li>Key-value pairs separated by {@code ;}.
+ * </ul>
+ * <p>
+ * Each tokener may be used to parse a single JSON string. Instances of this class are not
+ * thread safe. Although this class is nonfinal, it was not designed for inheritance and
+ * should not be subclassed. In particular, self-use by overrideable methods is not
+ * specified. See <i>Effective Java</i> Item 17, "Design and Document or inheritance or
+ * else prohibit it" for further information.
