-     * Returns an out-of-bounds exception formatter from an given exception

-     * out-of-bounds message from its arguments and applies that message to the
-     * given exception factory to produce and relay an exception.
-     *
-     * <p>The exception formatter accepts two arguments: a {@code String}
-     * describing the out-of-bounds range check that failed, referred to as the
-     * <em>check kind</em>; and a {@code List<Integer>} containing the
-     * out-of-bound integer values that failed the check.  The list of
-     * out-of-bound values is not modified.
-     *
-     * <p>Three check kinds are supported {@code checkIndex},
-     * {@code checkFromToIndex} and {@code checkFromIndexSize} corresponding
-     * respectively to the specified application of an exception formatter as an
-     * argument to the out-of-bounds range check methods
-     * {@link #checkIndex(int, int, BiFunction) checkIndex},
-     * {@link #checkFromToIndex(int, int, int, BiFunction) checkFromToIndex}, and
-     * {@link #checkFromIndexSize(int, int, int, BiFunction) checkFromIndexSize}.
-     * Thus a supported check kind corresponds to a method name and the
-     * out-of-bound integer values correspond to method argument values, in
-     * order, preceding the exception formatter argument (similar in many
-     * respects to the form of arguments required for a reflective invocation of
-     * such a range check method).
-     *
-     * <p>Formatter arguments conforming to such supported check kinds will
-     * produce specific exception messages describing failed out-of-bounds
-     * checks.  Otherwise, more generic exception messages will be produced in
-     * any of the following cases: the check kind is supported but fewer
-     * or more out-of-bounds values are supplied, the check kind is not
-     * supported, the check kind is {@code null}, or the list of out-of-bound
-     * values is {@code null}.
-     *
-     * @apiNote
-     * This method produces an out-of-bounds exception formatter that can be
-     * passed as an argument to any of the supported out-of-bounds range check
-     * methods declared by {@code Objects}.  For example, a formatter producing
-     * an {@code ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException} may be produced and stored on a
-     * {@code static final} field as follows:
-     * <pre>{@code
-     * static final
-     * BiFunction<String, List<Integer>, ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException> AIOOBEF =
-     *     outOfBoundsExceptionFormatter(ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException::new);
-     * }</pre>
-     * The formatter instance {@code AIOOBEF} may be passed as an argument to an
-     * out-of-bounds range check method, such as checking if an {@code index}
-     * is within the bounds of a {@code limit}:
-     * <pre>{@code
-     * checkIndex(index, limit, AIOOBEF);
-     * }</pre>
-     * If the bounds check fails then the range check method will throw an
-     * {@code ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException} with an appropriate exception
-     * message that is a produced from {@code AIOOBEF} as follows:
-     * <pre>{@code
-     * AIOOBEF.apply("checkIndex", List.of(index, limit));
-     * }</pre>
-     *
-     * @param f the exception factory, that produces an exception from a message
-     *        where the message is produced and formatted by the returned

+     *
+     * <p>The exception formatter accepts two arguments: a {@code String}

+     * <em>check kind</em>; and a {@code List<Integer>} containing the

+     * out-of-bound values is not modified.
+     *
+     * <p>Three check kinds are supported {@code checkIndex},
+     * {@code checkFromToIndex} and {@code checkFromIndexSize} corresponding

+     * order, preceding the exception formatter argument (similar in many
+     * respects to the form of arguments required for a reflective invocation of
+     * such a range check method).
+     *
+     * <p>Formatter arguments conforming to such supported check kinds will

+     * any of the following cases: the check kind is supported but fewer
