   30    * A thread-safe, mutable sequence of characters.
   31    * A string buffer is like a {@link String}, but can be modified. At any
   32    * point in time it contains some particular sequence of characters, but
   33    * the length and content of the sequence can be changed through certain
   34    * method calls.
   35    * <p>
   36    * String buffers are safe for use by multiple threads. The methods
   37    * are synchronized where necessary so that all the operations on any
   38    * particular instance behave as if they occur in some serial order
   39    * that is consistent with the order of the method calls made by each of
   40    * the individual threads involved.
   41    * <p>
   42    * The principal operations on a <code>StringBuffer</code> are the
   43    * <code>append</code> and <code>insert</code> methods, which are
   44    * overloaded so as to accept data of any type. Each effectively
   45    * converts a given datum to a string and then appends or inserts the
   46    * characters of that string to the string buffer. The
   47    * <code>append</code> method always adds these characters at the end
   48    * of the buffer; the <code>insert</code> method adds the characters at
   49    * a specified point.
   50    * <p>
   51    * For example, if <code>z</code> refers to a string buffer object
   52    * whose current contents are "<code>start</code>", then
   53    * the method call <code>z.append("le")</code> would cause the string
   54    * buffer to contain "<code>startle</code>", whereas
   55    * <code>z.insert(4, "le")</code> would alter the string buffer to
   56    * contain "<code>starlet</code>".
   57    * <p>
   58    * In general, if sb refers to an instance of a <code>StringBuffer</code>,
   59    * then <code>sb.append(x)</code> has the same effect as
   60    * <code>sb.insert(sb.length(),&nbsp;x)</code>.
   61    * <p>
   62    * Whenever an operation occurs involving a source sequence (such as
   63    * appending or inserting from a source sequence) this class synchronizes
   64    * only on the string buffer performing the operation, not on the source.
   65    * <p>
   66    * Every string buffer has a capacity. As long as the length of the
   67    * character sequence contained in the string buffer does not exceed
   68    * the capacity, it is not necessary to allocate a new internal
   69    * buffer array. If the internal buffer overflows, it is
   70    * automatically made larger.
   71    *
   72    * As of  release JDK 5, this class has been supplemented with an equivalent
   73    * class designed for use by a single thread, {@link StringBuilder}.  The
   74    * <tt>StringBuilder</tt> class should generally be used in preference to
   75    * this one, as it supports all of the same operations but it is faster, as
   76    * it performs no synchronization.
