/**
* The {@code LinearGradientPaint} class provides a way to fill
* a {@link java.awt.Shape} with a linear color gradient pattern. The user
* may specify two or more gradient colors, and this paint will provide an
* interpolation between each color. The user also specifies start and end
* points which define where in user space the color gradient should begin
* and end.
* <p>
* The user must provide an array of floats specifying how to distribute the
* colors along the gradient. These values should range from 0.0 to 1.0 and
* act like keyframes along the gradient (they mark where the gradient should
* be exactly a particular color).
* <p>
* In the event that the user does not set the first keyframe value equal
* at these positions and the first and last colors will be replicated there.
* So, if a user specifies the following arrays to construct a gradient:<br>
* <pre>
* {Color.BLUE, Color.RED}, {.3f, .7f}
* </pre>
* this will be converted to a gradient with the following keyframes:<br>
* <pre>
* {Color.BLUE, Color.BLUE, Color.RED, Color.RED}, {0f, .3f, .7f, 1f}
* </pre>
*
* <p>
* The user may also select what action the {@code LinearGradientPaint} object
* takes when it is filling the space outside the start and end points by
* setting {@code CycleMethod} to either {@code REFLECTION} or {@code REPEAT}.
* The distances between any two colors in any of the reflected or repeated
* copies of the gradient are the same as the distance between those same two
* colors between the start and end points.
* Note that some minor variations in distances may occur due to sampling at
* the granularity of a pixel.
* If no cycle method is specified, {@code NO_CYCLE} will be chosen by
* default, which means the endpoint colors will be used to fill the
* remaining area.
* <p>
* The colorSpace parameter allows the user to specify in which colorspace
* the interpolation should be performed, default sRGB or linearized RGB.
*
* <p>
* The following code demonstrates typical usage of
* {@code LinearGradientPaint}:
* <p>
* <pre>
* Point2D start = new Point2D.Float(0, 0);
* Point2D end = new Point2D.Float(50, 50);
* float[] dist = {0.0f, 0.2f, 1.0f};
* Color[] colors = {Color.RED, Color.WHITE, Color.BLUE};
* LinearGradientPaint p =
* new LinearGradientPaint(start, end, dist, colors);
* </pre>
* <p>
* This code will create a {@code LinearGradientPaint} which interpolates
* between red and white for the first 20% of the gradient and between white
* and blue for the remaining 80%.
*
* <p>
* This image demonstrates the example code above for each
* of the three cycle methods:
