Method Summary

All Methods Instance Methods Abstract Methods
Modifier and Type	Method	Description
`int`	`getNumberOfValues()`
`T`	`getValue(int i)`	Deterministically computes the i-th value in the (totally ordered) set of values for this key
`boolean`	`isValueValid(java.lang.String value)`	Tries to cast the given String to an object of the value domain and checks whether any entry in the set corresponds to it.

```
T getValue(int i)
```
    Deterministically computes the i-th value in the (totally ordered) set of values for this key
    
    Parameters:
    
    i - The index for the value
    
    Returns:
  - isValueValid
```
boolean isValueValid(java.lang.String value)
```
    Tries to cast the given String to an object of the value domain and checks whether any entry in the set corresponds to it.
    
    Parameters:
    
    value -
    
    Returns:
    
    True iff there is one entity in the value set whose toString method evaluates to the given string.
