    All Methods Instance Methods Concrete Methods
    Modifier and Type | Method | Description
    --- | --- | ---
    `long` | `getSize()` | A random JIT `Selector` with `Selector.isNeverEnding()` true should return a size as if it would be able to return each distinct element only once, because the size can be used in `SelectionProbabilityWeightFactory`.
    `boolean` | `isCountable()` | If false, then `Selector.isNeverEnding()` is true.
    `boolean` | `isNeverEnding()` | Is true if `Selector.isCountable()` is false or if this selector is in random order (for most cases).
    `Iterator<Move>` | `iterator()` |
    `void` | `solvingEnded​(DefaultSolverScope solverScope)` |
    `void` | `solvingStarted​(DefaultSolverScope solverScope)` |

  - ### Method Detail

    - #### solvingStarted

          public void solvingStarted​(DefaultSolverScope solverScope)

      Specified by:
        `solvingStarted` in interface `SolverLifecycleListener`
      Overrides:
        `solvingStarted` in class `AbstractSelector`

    - #### solvingEnded

          public void solvingEnded​(DefaultSolverScope solverScope)

      Specified by:
        `solvingEnded` in interface `SolverLifecycleListener`
      Overrides:
        `solvingEnded` in class `AbstractSelector`

    - #### isCountable

          public boolean isCountable()

      Description copied from interface: `Selector`
      If false, then `Selector.isNeverEnding()` is true.
      Returns:
        true if all the `ValueRange`s are countable (for example a double value range between 1.2 and 1.4 is not countable)

    - #### 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).

    - #### getSize

          public long getSize()

      Description copied from interface: `IterableSelector`
      A random JIT `Selector` with `Selector.isNeverEnding()` true should return a size as if it would be able to return each distinct element only once, because the size can be used in `SelectionProbabilityWeightFactory`.
      Returns:
        the approximate number of elements generated by this `Selector`, always `>= 0`

    - #### iterator

          public Iterator<Move> iterator()

    - #### toString

          public String toString()

      Overrides:
        `toString` in class `Object`
