Interface Quadruple<T1,T2,T3,T4>

Type Parameters:

T1 - The type of the first value

T2 - The type of the second value

T3 - The type of the third value

T4 - The type of the fourth value

All Superinterfaces:

ViewableAsQuadruple<T1,T2,T3,T4>

public interface Quadruple<T1,T2,T3,T4>
extends ViewableAsQuadruple<T1,T2,T3,T4>

A quadruple is a simple composition of four arbitrary values (objects). A quadruple captures no semantics of the four values, and they are only referred to as "the first", "the second", "the third", and "the fourth" value.
