70  * Framework-level interface defining an amount of time, such as
71  * "6 hours", "8 days" or "2 years and 3 months".
72  * <p>
73  * This is the base interface type for amounts of time.
74  * An amount is distinct from a date or time-of-day in that it is not tied
75  * to any specific point on the time-line.
76  * <p>
77  * The amount can be thought of as a {@code Map} of {@link TemporalUnit} to
78  * {@code long}, exposed via {@link #getUnits()} and {@link #get(TemporalUnit)}.
79  * A simple case might have a single unit-value pair, such as "6 hours".
80  * A more complex case may have multiple unit-value pairs, such as
81  * "7 years, 3 months and 5 days".
82  * <p>
83  * There are two common implementations.
84  * {@link Period} is a date-based implementation, storing years, months and days.
85  * {@link Duration} is a time-based implementation, storing seconds and nanoseconds,
86  * but providing some access using other duration based units such as minutes,
87  * hours and fixed 24-hour days.
88  * <p>
89  * This interface is a framework-level interface that should not be widely
90  * used in application code. Instead, applications should create and pass
91  * around instances of concrete types, such as {@code Period} and {@code Duration}.
92  *
93  * @implSpec
94  * This interface places no restrictions on the mutability of implementations,
95  * however immutability is strongly recommended.
96  *
