Fling animation is an animation that continues an initial momentum (most often from gesture velocity) and gradually slows down. The fling animation will come to a stop when the velocity of the animation is below the threshold derived from setMinimumVisibleChange(float), or when the value of the animation has gone beyond the min or max value defined via DynamicAnimation#setMinValue(float) or DynamicAnimation#setMaxValue(float). It is recommended to restrict the fling animation with min and/or max value, such that the animation can end when it goes beyond screen bounds, thus preserving CPU cycles and resources.

For example, you can create a fling animation that animates the translationX of a view:

FlingAnimation flingAnim = new FlingAnimation(view, DynamicAnimation.TRANSLATION_X)
          // Sets the start velocity to -2000 (pixel/s)
          .setStartVelocity(-2000)
          // Optional but recommended to set a reasonable min and max range for the animation.
          // In this particular case, we set the min and max to -200 and 2000 respectively.
          .setMinValue(-200).setMaxValue(2000);
  flingAnim.start();

Inherited constants

From class DynamicAnimation

`Float`	`MIN_VISIBLE_CHANGE_ALPHA` The minimum visible change in alpha that can be visible to users.
`Float`	`MIN_VISIBLE_CHANGE_PIXELS` The minimum visible change in pixels that can be visible to users.
`Float`	`MIN_VISIBLE_CHANGE_ROTATION_DEGREES` The minimum visible change in degrees that can be visible to users.
`Float`	`MIN_VISIBLE_CHANGE_SCALE` The minimum visible change in scale that can be visible to users.

Public constructors
`<init>(floatValueHolder: FloatValueHolder!)` This creates a FlingAnimation that animates a `FloatValueHolder` instance.
`<init>(object: K, property: FloatPropertyCompat<K>!)` This creates a FlingAnimation that animates the property of the given object.

Public methods
Float	`getFriction()` Returns the friction being set on the animation via `setFriction(float)`.
FlingAnimation!	`setFriction(@FloatRange(0.0, false) friction: Float)` Sets the friction for the fling animation.
FlingAnimation!	`setMaxValue(maxValue: Float)` Sets the max value of the animation.
FlingAnimation!	`setMinValue(minValue: Float)` Sets the min value of the animation.
FlingAnimation!	`setStartVelocity(startVelocity: Float)` Start velocity of the animation.

Inherited functions

From class DynamicAnimation

`T`	`addEndListener(listener: DynamicAnimation.OnAnimationEndListener!)` Adds an end listener to the animation for receiving onAnimationEnd callbacks. If the listener is `null` or has already been added to the list of listeners for the animation, no op.
`T`	`addUpdateListener(listener: DynamicAnimation.OnAnimationUpdateListener!)` Adds an update listener to the animation for receiving per-frame animation update callbacks. If the listener is `null` or has already been added to the list of listeners for the animation, no op. Note that update listener should only be added before the start of the animation.
`Unit`	`cancel()` Cancels the on-going animation. If the animation hasn't started, no op. Note that this method should only be called on main thread.
`Float`	`getMinimumVisibleChange()` Returns the minimum change in the animation property that could be visibly different to users.
`Boolean`	`isRunning()` Returns whether the animation is currently running.
`Unit`	`removeEndListener(listener: DynamicAnimation.OnAnimationEndListener!)` Removes the end listener from the animation, so as to stop receiving animation end callbacks.
`Unit`	`removeUpdateListener(listener: DynamicAnimation.OnAnimationUpdateListener!)` Removes the update listener from the animation, so as to stop receiving animation update callbacks.
`T`	`setMinimumVisibleChange(@FloatRange(0.0, false) minimumVisibleChange: Float)` This method sets the minimal change of animation value that is visible to users, which helps determine a reasonable threshold for the animation's termination condition. It is critical to set the minimal visible change for custom properties (i.e. non-`ViewProperty`s) unless the custom property is in pixels. For custom properties, this minimum visible change defaults to change in pixel (i.e. `MIN_VISIBLE_CHANGE_PIXELS`. It is recommended to adjust this value that is reasonable for the property to be animated. A general rule of thumb to calculate such a value is: minimum visible change = range of custom property value / corresponding pixel range. For example, if the property to be animated is a progress (from 0 to 100) that corresponds to a 200-pixel change. Then the min visible change should be 100 / 200. (i.e. 0.5). It's not necessary to call this method when animating `ViewProperty`s, as the minimum visible change will be derived from the property. For example, if the property to be animated is in pixels (i.e. `TRANSLATION_X`, `TRANSLATION_Y`, `TRANSLATION_Z`, @`SCROLL_X` or `SCROLL_Y`), the default minimum visible change is 1 (pixel). For `ROTATION`, `ROTATION_X` or
