- Method Detail
  - write
```
int write(int start,
          byte[] buffer,
          int pos)
```
    Write the bytes into a buffer. The objective is to avoid the local bytes being exposed to other classes if the implementation is expected to be immutable. It writes as many bytes as possible into the buffer and then return how many bytes were written. It's the responsibility of the caller to call this method repeatedly and ensure that everything is completely written
    
    Parameters:
    
    start - position from which to start writing
    
    buffer - the buffer to which to write to
    
    pos - position to start writing
    
    Returns:
    
    no:of bytes written
  - size
```
int size()
```
    The size of utf8 bytes
    
    Returns:
    
    the size
  - byteAt
```
byte byteAt(int idx)
```
  - compareTo
```
default int compareTo(Utf8CharSequence o)
```
    Specified by:
    
    compareTo in interface Comparable<Utf8CharSequence>
  - write
```
default void write(OutputStream os)
            throws IOException
```
    Creates a byte[] and copy to it first before writing it out to the output
    
    Parameters:
    
    os - The sink
    
    Throws:
    
    IOException
  - clone
```
Utf8CharSequence clone()
```
