/**
 * Red-Black tree based implementation of the <tt>NavigableMap</tt> interface.
 * This class guarantees that the map will be in ascending key order, sorted
 * according to the <i>natural order</i> for the keys' class (see
 * <tt>Comparable</tt>), or by the comparator provided at creation time,
 * depending on which constructor is used.<p>
 *
 * This implementation provides guaranteed log(n) time cost for the
 * <tt>containsKey</tt>, <tt>get</tt>, <tt>put</tt> and <tt>remove</tt>
 * operations.  Algorithms are adaptations of those in Cormen, Leiserson, and
 * Rivest's <I>Introduction to Algorithms</I>.<p>
 *
 * Note that the ordering maintained by a sorted map (whether or not an
 * explicit comparator is provided) must be <i>consistent with equals</i> if
 * this sorted map is to correctly implement the <tt>Map</tt> interface.  (See
 * <tt>Comparable</tt> or <tt>Comparator</tt> for a precise definition of
 * <i>consistent with equals</i>.)  This is so because the <tt>Map</tt>
 * interface is defined in terms of the equals operation, but a map performs
 * all key comparisons using its <tt>compareTo</tt> (or <tt>compare</tt>)
 * method, so two keys that are deemed equal by this method are, from the
 * standpoint of the sorted map, equal.  The behavior of a sorted map
 * <i>is</i> well-defined even if its ordering is inconsistent with equals; it
 * just fails to obey the general contract of the <tt>Map</tt> interface.<p>
 *
 * <b>Note that this implementation is not synchronized.</b> If multiple
 * threads access a map concurrently, and at least one of the threads modifies
 * the map structurally, it <i>must</i> be synchronized externally.  (A
 * structural modification is any operation that adds or deletes one or more
 * mappings; merely changing the value associated with an existing key is not
 * a structural modification.)  This is typically accomplished by
 * synchronizing on some object that naturally encapsulates the map.  If no
 * such object exists, the map should be "wrapped" using the
 * <tt>Collections.synchronizedMap</tt> method.  This is best done at creation
 * time, to prevent accidental unsynchronized access to the map:
 * <pre>
 *     Map m = Collections.synchronizedMap(new TreeMap(...));
 * </pre><p>
 *
 * The iterators returned by all of this class's "collection view methods" are
 * <i>fail-fast</i>: if the map is structurally modified at any time after the
 * iterator is created, in any way except through the iterator's own
 * <tt>remove</tt> or <tt>add</tt> methods, the iterator throws a
 * <tt>ConcurrentModificationException</tt>.  Thus, in the face of concurrent
 * modification, the iterator fails quickly and cleanly, rather than risking
 * arbitrary, non-deterministic behavior at an undetermined time in the
 * future.
 *
 * <p>Note that the fail-fast behavior of an iterator cannot be guaranteed
 * as it is, generally speaking, impossible to make any hard guarantees in the
 * presence of unsynchronized concurrent modification.  Fail-fast iterators
 * throw <tt>ConcurrentModificationException</tt> on a best-effort basis.
 * Therefore, it would be wrong to write a program that depended on this
 * exception for its correctness:   <i>the fail-fast behavior of iterators
 * should be used only to detect bugs.</i>
 *
 * <p>All <tt>Map.Entry</tt> pairs returned by methods in this class
 * and its views represent snapshots of mappings at the time they were
 * produced. They do <em>not</em> support the <tt>Entry.setValue</tt>
 * method. (Note however that it is possible to change mappings in the
 * associated map using <tt>put</tt>.)
 *
 * <p>This class is a member of the
 * <a href="{@docRoot}/../guide/collections/index.html">
 * Java Collections Framework</a>.
