    getSegmentStrings in interface AddressSegmentSeries
    
    Returns:
  - reverseSegments
```
public abstract Address reverseSegments()
```
    Description copied from interface: AddressSegmentSeries
    
    Returns a new segment series with the segments reversed. This does not throw IncompatibleAddressException since all address series can reverse their segments.
    
    Specified by:
    
    reverseSegments in interface AddressSegmentSeries
    
    Returns:
  - reverseBits
```
public abstract Address reverseBits(boolean perByte)
```
    Description copied from interface: AddressSegmentSeries
    
    Returns a new segment series with the bits reversed.
    
    Specified by:
    
    reverseBits in interface AddressComponent
    
    Specified by:
    
    reverseBits in interface AddressSegmentSeries
    
    Parameters:
    
    perByte - if true, only the bits in each byte are reversed, if false, then all bits in the component are reversed
    
    Returns:
  - reverseBytes
```
public abstract Address reverseBytes()
```
    Description copied from interface: AddressSegmentSeries
    
    Returns a new segment series with the bytes reversed.
    
    Specified by:
    
    reverseBytes in interface AddressComponent
    
    Specified by:
    
    reverseBytes in interface AddressSegmentSeries
    
    Returns:
  - reverseBytesPerSegment
```
public abstract Address reverseBytesPerSegment()
```
    Description copied from interface: AddressSegmentSeries
    
    Returns a new segment series with the bytes reversed within each segment.
    
    Specified by:
    
    reverseBytesPerSegment in interface AddressSegmentSeries
    
    Returns:
  - toPrefixBlock
```
public abstract Address toPrefixBlock()
```
    Description copied from interface: AddressSegmentSeries
    
    If this series has a prefix length, returns the block for that prefix. Otherwise, this address series is returned.
    
    Specified by:
    
    toPrefixBlock in interface AddressSegmentSeries
    
    Returns:
    
    the block of address series for the prefix length
  - removePrefixLength
```
public abstract Address removePrefixLength()
```
    Description copied from interface: AddressSegmentSeries
    
    Removes the prefix length.
    If the series already has a prefix length, the bits previously not within the prefix become zero.
    
    Specified by:
    
    removePrefixLength in interface AddressSegmentSeries
    
    Returns:
  - adjustPrefixBySegment
```
public abstract Address adjustPrefixBySegment(boolean nextSegment)
```
    Description copied from interface: AddressSegmentSeries
    
    Increases or decreases prefix length to the next segment boundary.
    When prefix length is increased, the bits moved within the prefix become zero. When a prefix length is decreased, whether the bits moved outside the prefix become zero is dependent on the address type.
    
    Specified by:
    
    adjustPrefixBySegment in interface AddressSegmentSeries
    
    Returns:
  - adjustPrefixLength
```
public abstract Address adjustPrefixLength(int adjustment)
```
    Description copied from interface: AddressSegmentSeries
    
    Increases or decreases prefix length by the given increment.
    When prefix length is increased, the bits moved within the prefix become zero. When the prefix is extended beyond the segment series boundary, it is removed. When a prefix length is decreased, whether the bits moved outside the prefix become zero is dependent on the address type.
    
    Specified by:
    
    adjustPrefixLength in interface AddressSegmentSeries
    
    Returns:
  - setPrefixLength
```
public abstract Address setPrefixLength(int prefixLength)
```
    Description copied from interface: AddressSegmentSeries
    
    Sets the prefix length.
    If this series has a prefix length, and the prefix length is increased, the bits moved within the prefix become zero.
    When the prefix is extended beyond the segment series boundary, it is removed.
    When a prefix length is decreased, whether the bits moved outside the prefix become zero is dependent on the address type.
    
    Specified by:
    
    setPrefixLength in interface AddressSegmentSeries
    
    Returns:

    AddressSegmentSeries.applyPrefixLength(int)
  - applyPrefixLength
```
public abstract Address applyPrefixLength(int networkPrefixLength)
```
    Description copied from interface: AddressSegmentSeries
    
    Applies the given prefix length to create a new segment series.
    Similar to AddressSegmentSeries.setPrefixLength(int) except that prefix lengths are never increased. When this series already has a prefix length that is less than or equal to the requested prefix length, this series is returned.
    Otherwise the returned series has the given prefix length.
    With some address types, the bits moved outside the prefix will become zero in the returned series.
    
    Specified by:
    
    applyPrefixLength in interface AddressSegmentSeries
    
    Returns:
