// This is a class with value field and name field.
// When you create this class, you cannot reset the value and all other fields from outside.
// This class does not have methods for the purpose of resetting fields from outside.

// Implicit construction via string literal

// Constructors
StringBuffer()             // an initially-empty StringBuffer
StringBuffer(int size)     // with the specified initial size
StringBuffer(String s)     // with the specified initial content

// Length
int length()

// Methods for building up the content
// type could be primitives, char[], String, StringBuffer, etc
StringBuffer append(type arg)  // ==> note above!
StringBuffer insert(int offset, type arg) // ==> note above!

// Methods for manipulating the content
StringBuffer delete(int start, int end)
StringBuffer deleteCharAt(int index)
void setLength(int newSize)
void setCharAt(int index, char newChar)
StringBuffer replace(int start, int end, String s)
StringBuffer reverse()

// Methods for extracting whole/part of the content
char charAt(int index)
String substring(int start)
String substring(int start, int end)
String toString()

// Methods for searching
int indexOf(String searchKey)
int indexOf(String searchKey, int fromIndex)
int lastIndexOf(String searchKey)
int lastIndexOf(String searchKey, int fromIndex)
