/**@class java.security.AlgorithmParameters
@extends java.lang.Object

 This class is used as an opaque representation of cryptographic parameters.

 <p>An {@code AlgorithmParameters} object for managing the parameters
 for a particular algorithm can be obtained by
 calling one of the {@code getInstance} factory methods
 (static methods that return instances of a given class).

 <p>Once an {@code AlgorithmParameters} object is obtained, it must be
 initialized via a call to {@code init}, using an appropriate parameter
 specification or parameter encoding.

 <p>A transparent parameter specification is obtained from an
 {@code AlgorithmParameters} object via a call to
 {@code getParameterSpec}, and a byte encoding of the parameters is
 obtained via a call to {@code getEncoded}.

 <p> Android provides the following <code>AlgorithmParameters</code> algorithms:
