Basic utilities

Collections: Guava's extensions to the JDK collections ecosystem. These are some of the most mature and popular parts of Guava.
- Primitives: operations on primitive types, like int and char, not provided by the JDK, including unsigned variants for some types.
- Strings: A few extremely useful string utilities: splitting, joining, padding, and more.
- Functional idioms: Used sparingly, Guava's functional idioms can significantly simplify code.
Caches: Local caching, done right, and supporting a wide variety of expiration behaviors.
Ranges: Guava's powerful API for dealing with ranges on Comparable types, both continuous and discrete.
- Hashing: Tools for more sophisticated hashes than what's provided by Object.hashCode(), including Bloom filters.
- Math: Optimized, thoroughly tested math utilities not provided by the JDK.
Concurrency: Powerful, simple abstractions to make it easier to write correct concurrent code.
I/O: Simplified I/O operations, especially on whole I/O streams and files, for Java 5 and 6.
EventBus: Publish-subscribe-style communication between components without requiring the components to explicitly register with one another.
Reflection: Guava utilities for Java's reflective capabilities.
- Tips: Getting your application working the way you want it to with Guava.
  - Philosophy: what Guava is and isn't, and our goals.
  - Using Guava in your build, with build systems including Maven, Gradle, and more.
  - Using ProGuard to avoid bundling parts of Guava you don't use with your JAR.
  - Apache Commons equivalents, helping you translate code from using Apache Commons Collections.
  - Compatibility, details between Guava versions.
  - Idea Graveyard, feature requests that have been conclusively rejected.
  - Friends, open-source projects we like and admire.
