/**
* Records integer values, and provides stable interval {@link Histogram} samples from
* live recorded data without interrupting or stalling active recording of values. Each interval
* histogram provided contains all value counts accumulated since the previous interval histogram
* was taken.
* <p>
* This pattern is commonly used in logging interval histogram information while recording is ongoing.
* <p>
* {@link Recorder} supports concurrent
* {@link Recorder#recordValue} or
* {@link Recorder#recordValueWithExpectedInterval} calls.
* Recording calls are wait-free on architectures that support atomic increment operations, and
* are lock-free on architectures that do not.
* <p>
* A common pattern for using a {@link Recorder} looks like this:
* <br><pre><code>
* Recorder recorder = new Recorder(2); // Two decimal point accuracy
* Histogram intervalHistogram = null;
* ...
* [start of some loop construct that periodically wants to grab an interval histogram]
* ...
* // Get interval histogram, recycling previous interval histogram:
* intervalHistogram = recorder.getIntervalHistogram(intervalHistogram);
* histogramLogWriter.outputIntervalHistogram(intervalHistogram);
* ...
* [end of loop construct]
* </code></pre>
