+/**
+ * A collection that contains no duplicate elements.  More formally, sets
+ * contain no pair of elements <code>e1</code> and <code>e2</code> such that
+ * <code>e1.equals(e2)</code>, and at most one null element.  As implied by
+ * its name, this interface models the mathematical <i>set</i> abstraction.
+ *
+ * <p>The <tt>Set</tt> interface places additional stipulations, beyond those
+ * inherited from the <tt>Collection</tt> interface, on the contracts of all
+ * constructors and on the contracts of the <tt>add</tt>, <tt>equals</tt> and
+ * <tt>hashCode</tt> methods.  Declarations for other inherited methods are
+ * also included here for convenience.  (The specifications accompanying these
+ * declarations have been tailored to the <tt>Set</tt> interface, but they do
+ * not contain any additional stipulations.)
+ *
+ * <p>The additional stipulation on constructors is, not surprisingly,
+ * that all constructors must create a set that contains no duplicate elements
+ * (as defined above).
+ *
+ * <p>Note: Great care must be exercised if mutable objects are used as set
+ * elements.  The behavior of a set is not specified if the value of an object
+ * is changed in a manner that affects <tt>equals</tt> comparisons while the
+ * object is an element in the set.  A special case of this prohibition is
+ * that it is not permissible for a set to contain itself as an element.
+ *
+ * <p>Some set implementations have restrictions on the elements that
+ * they may contain.  For example, some implementations prohibit null elements,
+ * and some have restrictions on the types of their elements.  Attempting to
+ * add an ineligible element throws an unchecked exception, typically
+ * <tt>NullPointerException</tt> or <tt>ClassCastException</tt>.  Attempting
+ * to query the presence of an ineligible element may throw an exception,
+ * or it may simply return false; some implementations will exhibit the former
+ * behavior and some will exhibit the latter.  More generally, attempting an
+ * operation on an ineligible element whose completion would not result in
+ * the insertion of an ineligible element into the set may throw an
+ * exception or it may succeed, at the option of the implementation.
+ * Such exceptions are marked as "optional" in the specification for this
+ * interface.
+ *
+ * <p>This interface is a member of the
+ * <a href="{@docRoot}/../technotes/guides/collections/index.html">
+ * Java Collections Framework</a>.
