+/**
+ * Provides classes that are fundamental to the design of the Java
+ * programming language. The most important classes are {@code
+ * Object}, which is the root of the class hierarchy, and {@code
+ * Class}, instances of which represent classes at run time.
+ *
+ * <p>Frequently it is necessary to represent a value of primitive
+ * type as if it were an object. The wrapper classes {@code Boolean},
+ * {@code Character}, {@code Integer}, {@code Long}, {@code Float},
+ * and {@code Double} serve this purpose.  An object of type {@code
+ * Double}, for example, contains a field whose type is double,
+ * representing that value in such a way that a reference to it can be
+ * stored in a variable of reference type.  These classes also provide
+ * a number of methods for converting among primitive values, as well
+ * as supporting such standard methods as equals and hashCode.  The
+ * {@code Void} class is a non-instantiable class that holds a
+ * reference to a {@code Class} object representing the type void.
+ *
+ * <p>The class {@code Math} provides commonly used mathematical
+ * functions such as sine, cosine, and square root. The classes {@code
+ * String}, {@code StringBuffer}, and {@code StringBuilder} similarly
+ * provide commonly used operations on character strings.
+ *
+ * <p>Classes {@code ClassLoader}, {@code Process}, {@code
+ * ProcessBuilder}, {@code Runtime}, {@code SecurityManager}, and
+ * {@code System} provide "system operations" that manage the dynamic
+ * loading of classes, creation of external processes, host
+ * environment inquiries such as the time of day, and enforcement of
+ * security policies.
+ *
+ * <p>Class {@code Throwable} encompasses objects that may be thrown
+ * by the {@code throw} statement. Subclasses of {@code Throwable}
+ * represent errors and exceptions.
+ *

+ * <h3>Character Encodings</h3>
+ *
+ * The specification of the {@link java.nio.charset.Charset
+ * java.nio.charset.Charset} class describes the naming conventions
+ * for character encodings as well as the set of standard encodings
+ * that must be supported by every implementation of the Java
+ * platform.
