      public class CachingMoveSelector
      extends AbstractCachingMoveSelector

  A `MoveSelector` that caches the result of its child `MoveSelector`.

  Keep this code in sync with `CachingEntitySelector` and `CachingValueSelector`.

          public CachingMoveSelector​(MoveSelector childMoveSelector,
                                     SelectionCacheType cacheType,

  - ### Method Detail

    - #### isNeverEnding

          public boolean isNeverEnding()

      Description copied from interface: `Selector`
      Is true if `Selector.isCountable()` is false or if this selector is in random order (for most cases). Is never true when this selector is in shuffled order (which is less scalable but more exact).
      Returns:
        true if the `Iterator.hasNext()` of the `Iterator` created by `Iterable.iterator()` never returns false (except when it's empty).

    - #### iterator

          public Iterator<Move> iterator()

    - #### toString

          public String toString()

      Overrides:
        `toString` in class `Object`
