/**
 * A Java expression.

 * <p>
 * Unlike most of CodeModel, JExpressions are built bottom-up (
 * meaning you start from leaves and then gradually build compliated expressions
 * by combining them.)
 *
 * <p>
 * {@link JExpression} defines a series of composer methods,
 * which returns a complicated expression (by often taking other {@link JExpression}s
 * as parameters.
 * For example, you can build "5+2" by
 * {@code JExpr.lit(5).add(JExpr.lit(2))}
