Map.computeIfAbsent

[Martin Buchholz]

Looking at the spec for get() I see:

     * @param key the key whose associated value is to be returned

computeIfAbsent is an enhanced form of get(), so we could simply reuse that
@param, possibly embellished slightly with a phrase like

"possibly computed by the mapping function"
