/**
* The <code>Clip</code> interface represents a special kind of data line whose
* audio data can be loaded prior to playback, instead of being streamed in
* real time.
* <p>
* Because the data is pre-loaded and has a known length, you can set a clip
* to start playing at any position in its audio data. You can also create a
* loop, so that when the clip is played it will cycle repeatedly. Loops are
* specified with a starting and ending sample frame, along with the number of
* times that the loop should be played.
* <p>
* Clips may be obtained from a <code>{@link Mixer}</code> that supports lines
* of this type. Data is loaded into a clip when it is opened.
* <p>
* Playback of an audio clip may be started and stopped using the <code>start</code>
* and <code>stop</code> methods. These methods do not reset the media position;
* <code>start</code> causes playback to continue from the position where playback
* was last stopped. To restart playback from the beginning of the clip's audio
* data, simply follow the invocation of <code>{@link DataLine#stop stop}</code>
* with setFramePosition(0), which rewinds the media to the beginning
* of the clip.
