+/** This interface represents a region of a space as a partition.
+
+ * <p>Region are subsets of a space, they can be infinite (whole
+ * space, half space, infinite stripe ...) or finite (polygons in 2D,
+ * polyhedrons in 3D ...). Their main characteristic is to separate
+ * points that are considered to be <em>inside</em> the region from
+ * points considered to be <em>outside</em> of it. In between, there
+ * may be points on the <em>boundary</em> of the region.</p>
+
+ * <p>This implementation is limited to regions for which the boundary
+ * is composed of several {@link SubHyperplane sub-hyperplanes},
+ * including regions with no boundary at all: the whole space and the
+ * empty region. They are not necessarily finite and not necessarily
+ * path-connected. They can contain holes.</p>
+
+ * <p>Regions can be combined using the traditional sets operations :
+ * union, intersection, difference and symetric difference (exclusive
+ * or) for the binary operations, complement for the unary
+ * operation.</p>
+
+ * <p>
+ * Note that this interface is <em>not</em> intended to be implemented
+ * by Apache Commons Math users, it is only intended to be implemented
+ * within the library itself. New methods may be added even for minor
+ * versions, which breaks compatibility for external implementations.
+ * </p>

+ * @param <S> Type of the space.
