  - ### Method Detail

    - #### merge

          void merge(Traverser.Admin<?> other)

      When two traversers are have equality with each other, then they can be merged. This method is used to merge the traversers into a single traverser. This is used for optimization where instead of enumerating all traversers, they can be counted.
      Parameters:
        `other` - the other traverser to merge into this traverser. Once merged, the other can be garbage collected.

    - #### split

          <R> Traverser.Admin<R> split(R r,
                                       Step<T,R> step)

      Generate a child traverser of the current traverser for current as step and new object location. The child has the path history, future, and loop information of the parent. The child extends that path history with the current as and provided R-object.
      Type Parameters:
        `R` - The current object type of the child
      Parameters:
        `r` - The current object of the child
        `step` - The step yielding the split
      Returns:
        The split traverser

    - #### split

          Traverser.Admin<T> split()

      Generate a sibling traverser of the current traverser with a full copy of all state within the sibling.
      Returns:
        The split traverser

    - #### addLabels

          void addLabels(Set<String> labels)

    - #### keepLabels

          void keepLabels(Set<String> labels)

      Drop all path information not associated with specified labels. This is an optimization method that allows a traverser to save memory and increase the likelihood of bulking.
      Parameters:
        `labels` - the labels to keep path information for.

    - #### dropLabels

          void dropLabels(Set<String> labels)

      Drop all path information associated with specified labels. This is an optimization method that allows a traverser to save memory and increase the likelihood of bulking.
      Parameters:
        `labels` - the labels to drop path information for.

    - #### dropPath

          void dropPath()

      Drop the path of the traverser. This is an optimization method that allows a traverser to save memory and increase the likelihood of bulking.

    - #### set

          void set(T t)

      Set the current object location of the traverser.
      Parameters:
        `t` - The current object of the traverser

    - #### incrLoops

          void incrLoops(String stepLabel)

      Increment the number of times the traverser has gone through a looping section of traversal. The step label is important to create a stack of loop counters when within a nested context. If the provided label is not the same as the current label on the stack, add a new loop counter. If the provided label is the same as the current label on the stack, increment the loop counter.
      Parameters:
        `stepLabel` - the label of the step that is doing the incrementing

    - #### resetLoops

          void resetLoops()

      Set the number of times the traverser has gone through a loop back to 0. When a traverser exits a looping construct, this method should be called. In a nested loop context, the highest stack loop counter should be removed.

    - #### getStepId

          String getStepId()

      Get the step id of where the traverser is located. This is typically used in multi-machine systems that require the movement of traversers between different traversal instances.
      Returns:
        The future step for the traverser

    - #### setStepId

          void setStepId(String stepId)

      Set the step id of where the traverser is located. If the future is `HALT`, then `isHalted()` is true.
      Parameters:
        `stepId` - The future step of the traverser

    - #### isHalted

          default boolean isHalted()

      If the traverser has "no future" then it is done with its lifecycle. This does not mean that the traverser is "dead," only that it has successfully passed through a `Traversal`.
      Returns:
        Whether the traverser is done executing or not

    - #### setBulk

          void setBulk(long count)

      Set the number of traversers represented by this traverser.
      Parameters:
        `count` - the number of traversers

    - #### detach

          Traverser.Admin<T> detach()

      Prepare the traverser for migration across a JVM boundary.
      Returns:
        The deflated traverser

    - #### attach

          T attach(Function<org.apache.tinkerpop.gremlin.structure.util.Attachable<T>,T> method)

      Regenerate the detached traverser given its location at a particular vertex.
      Specified by:
        `attach` in interface `org.apache.tinkerpop.gremlin.structure.util.Attachable<T>`
      Parameters:
        `method` - The method by which to attach a `Traverser` to an vertex.
      Returns:
        The inflated traverser

    - #### setSideEffects

          void setSideEffects(TraversalSideEffects sideEffects)

      Set the sideEffects of the `Traversal`. Given that traversers can move between machines, it may be important to re-set this when the traverser crosses machine boundaries.
      Parameters:
        `sideEffects` - the sideEffects of the traversal.

    - #### getSideEffects

          TraversalSideEffects getSideEffects()

      Get the sideEffects associated with the traversal of the traverser.
      Returns:
        the traversal sideEffects of the traverser

    - #### getTags

          Set<String> getTags()

      Get the tags associated with the traverser. Tags are used to categorize historic behavior of a traverser. The returned set is mutable.
      Returns:
        the set of tags associated with the traverser.
