  - subSequence
```
public ByteSequence subSequence(int ofStart,
                                int ofEnd)
```
    Returns a new ByteSequence that is a subsequence of this sequence. The subsequence starts with the byte value at the specified index and ends with the byte value at index ofEnd - 1. The length (in bytes) of the returned sequence is ofEnd - ofStart, so if ofStart == ofEnd then an empty sequence is returned.
    
    Specified by:
    
    subSequence in interface ByteSequence
    
    Parameters:
    
    ofStart - the start index, inclusive
    
    ofEnd - the end index, exclusive
    
    Returns:
    
    the specified subsequence
  - toBinary
```
public Binary toBinary()
```
    Returns a Binary object that holds the contents of this ByteSequence.
    
    Specified by:
    
    toBinary in interface ByteSequence
    
    Returns:
    
    the contents of this ByteSequence as a Binary object
