Method Summary

All Methods Instance Methods Abstract Methods
Modifier and Type	Method	Description
`int`	`computeHashCode(E object)`	Computes the hashCode of the object as defined by the user.
`boolean`	`equals(E object1, E object2)`	Checks two objects for equality.

- Method Detail
  - computeHashCode
```
int computeHashCode(E object)
```
    Computes the hashCode of the object as defined by the user.
  - equals
```
boolean equals(E object1,
               E object2)
```
    Checks two objects for equality. The equality check can use the objects own equals() method or a custom method defined by the user. It should be consistent with the computeHashCode() method.
