java.lang.CharSequence interface that was introduced in J2SE 1.4. The CharSequence
interface provides a safe way to access character data for reading without

older environments in use.
While implementations of this interface can be used by all
Tokenizer ,
specialized tokenizers can take advantage of the generally faster methods
provided by the CharSequence interface.
