/**
* The {@code Maybe} class represents a deferred computation and emission of a single value, no value at all or an exception.
* <p>
* The {@code Maybe} class implements the {@link MaybeSource} base interface and the default consumer
* type it interacts with is the {@link MaybeObserver} via the {@link #subscribe(MaybeObserver)} method.
* <p>
* The {@code Maybe} operates with the following sequential protocol:
* <pre><code>
* onSubscribe (onSuccess | onError | onComplete)?
* </code></pre>
* <p>
* Note that {@code onSuccess}, {@code onError} and {@code onComplete} are mutually exclusive events; unlike {@code Observable},
* {@code onSuccess} is never followed by {@code onError} or {@code onComplete}.
* <p>
* Like {@link Observable}, a running {@code Maybe} can be stopped through the {@link Disposable} instance
* provided to consumers through {@link MaybeObserver#onSubscribe}.
* <p>
* Like an {@code Observable}, a {@code Maybe} is lazy, can be either "hot" or "cold", synchronous or
* asynchronous. {@code Maybe} instances returned by the methods of this class are <em>cold</em>
* and there is a standard <em>hot</em> implementation in the form of a subject:
* {@link io.reactivex.subjects.MaybeSubject MaybeSubject}.
* <p>
* The documentation for this class makes use of marble diagrams. The following legend explains these diagrams:
* <p>
* <img width="640" height="370" src="https://raw.github.com/wiki/ReactiveX/RxJava/images/rx-operators/maybe.png" alt="">
* <p>
* See {@link Flowable} or {@link Observable} for the
* implementation of the Reactive Pattern for a stream or vector of values.
* <p>
* Example:
* <pre><code>
* Disposable d = Maybe.just("Hello World")
* .delay(10, TimeUnit.SECONDS, Schedulers.io())
* .subscribeWith(new DisposableMaybeObserver<String>() {
* @Override
* public void onStart() {
* System.out.println("Started");
* }
*
* @Override
* public void onSuccess(String value) {
* System.out.println("Success: " + value);
* }
*
* @Override
* public void onError(Throwable error) {
* error.printStackTrace();
* }
*
* @Override
* public void onComplete() {
* System.out.println("Done!");
* }
* });
*
* Thread.sleep(5000);
*
* d.dispose();
* </code></pre>
* <p>
* Note that by design, subscriptions via {@link #subscribe(MaybeObserver)} can't be disposed
* from the outside (hence the
* {@code void} return of the {@link #subscribe(MaybeObserver)} method) and it is the
* responsibility of the implementor of the {@code MaybeObserver} to allow this to happen.
* RxJava supports such usage with the standard
* {@link io.reactivex.observers.DisposableMaybeObserver DisposableMaybeObserver} instance.
* For convenience, the {@link #subscribeWith(MaybeObserver)} method is provided as well to
* allow working with a {@code MaybeObserver} (or subclass) instance to be applied with in
* a fluent manner (such as in the example above).
*
* @param <T> the value type
* @since 2.0
* @see io.reactivex.observers.DisposableMaybeObserver
