/// A type that can be converted to and from an associated raw value.
/// With a `RawRepresentable` type, you can switch back and forth between a
/// custom type and an associated `RawValue` type without losing the value of
/// the original `RawRepresentable` type. Using the raw value of a conforming
/// type streamlines interoperation with Objective-C and legacy APIs and
/// simplifies conformance to other protocols, such as `Equatable`,
/// `Comparable`, and `Hashable`.
/// The `RawRepresentable` protocol is seen mainly in two categories of types:
/// enumerations with raw value types and option sets.
/// Enumerations with Raw Values
/// ============================
/// For any enumeration with a string, integer, or floating-point raw type, the
/// Swift compiler automatically adds `RawRepresentable` conformance. When
/// defining your own custom enumeration, you give it a raw type by specifying
/// the raw type as the first item in the enumeration's type inheritance list.
/// You can also use literals to specify values for one or more cases.
/// For example, the `Counter` enumeration defined here has an `Int` raw value
/// type and gives the first case a raw value of `1`:
/// case one = 1, two, three, four, five
/// You can create a `Counter` instance from an integer value between 1 and 5
/// by using the `init?(rawValue:)` initializer declared in the
/// `RawRepresentable` protocol. This initializer is failable because although
/// every case of the `Counter` type has a corresponding `Int` value, there
/// are many `Int` values that *don't* correspond to a case of `Counter`.
/// print(Counter(rawValue: i))
/// // Prints "Optional(Counter.three)"
/// // Prints "Optional(Counter.four)"
/// // Prints "Optional(Counter.five)"
/// Option sets all conform to `RawRepresentable` by inheritance using the
/// `OptionSet` protocol. Whether using an option set or creating your own,
/// you use the raw value of an option set instance to store the instance's
/// bitfield. The raw value must therefore be of a type that conforms to the
/// `FixedWidthInteger` protocol, such as `UInt8` or `Int`. For example, the
/// `Direction` type defines an option set for the four directions you can
/// struct Directions: OptionSet {
/// static let up = Directions(rawValue: 1 << 0)
/// static let down = Directions(rawValue: 1 << 1)
/// static let left = Directions(rawValue: 1 << 2)
/// static let right = Directions(rawValue: 1 << 3)
/// Unlike enumerations, option sets provide a nonfailable `init(rawValue:)`
/// initializer to convert from a raw value, because option sets don't have an
/// enumerated list of all possible cases. Option set values have
/// a one-to-one correspondence with their associated raw values.
/// In the case of the `Directions` option set, an instance can contain zero,
/// one, or more of the four defined directions. This example declares a
/// constant with three currently allowed moves. The raw value of the
/// `allowedMoves` instance is the result of the bitwise OR of its three
/// let allowedMoves: Directions = [.up, .down, .left]
/// print(allowedMoves.rawValue)
/// Option sets use bitwise operations on their associated raw values to
/// implement their mathematical set operations. For example, the `contains()`
/// method on `allowedMoves` performs a bitwise AND operation to check whether
/// the option set contains an element.
/// print(allowedMoves.contains(.right))
/// print(allowedMoves.rawValue & Directions.right.rawValue)

/// Creates a new instance with the specified raw value.
/// If there is no value of the type that corresponds with the specified raw

/// empty array literal, specify the type of the variable or constant.
/// var emptyArray: [Bool] = []
/// // 'emptyArray' has type '[Bool]'
/// Because many functions and initializers fully specify the types of their

/// array as a parameter:
/// func sum(values: [Int]) -> Int {
/// return values.reduce(0, +)
/// let sumOfFour = sum([5, 10, 15, 20])
/// let sumOfNone = sum([])
/// When you call a function that does not fully specify its parameters' types,
/// use the type-cast operator (`as`) to specify the type of an array literal.
/// For example, the `log(name:value:)` function shown here has an
/// unconstrained generic `value` parameter.
/// func log<T>(name name: String, value: T) {
/// print("\(name): \(value)")
/// log(name: "Four integers", value: [5, 10, 15, 20])
