"A nonempty, immutable sequence of values. The type 
 `Sequence<Element>` may be abbreviated `[Element+]`.
 
 Given a possibly-empty sequence of type `[Element*]`, the 
 `if (nonempty ...)` construct, or, alternatively, 
 `assert (nonempty ...)`, may be used to narrow to a 
 sequence type to a nonempty sequence type:
 
     [Integer*] nums = ... ;
     if (nonempty nums) {
         Integer first = nums.first;
         Integer max = max(nums);
         [Integer+] squares = nums.collect((Integer i) => i**2));
         [Integer+] sorted = nums.sort(byIncreasing((Integer i) => i));
     }
 
 Operations like `first`, `max()`, `collect()`, and `sort()`, 
 which polymorphically produce a nonempty or non-null output 
 when given a nonempty input are called 
 _emptiness-preserving_.
 
 `Sequence` has the following subtypes:
 
 - [[ArraySequence]], a sequence backed by an [[Array]],
 - [[Range]], an efficient representation of a sequence of 
   adjacent [[enumerable values|Enumerable]],
 - [[Tuple]], a typed linked list, and
 - [[Singleton]], a sequence of just one element."
