Most stream operations accept parameters that describe user-specifiedīehavior, such as the lambda expression w -> w.getWeight() passed to Unpredictable or erroneous behavior may result from modifying the stream Unless the source was explicitlyĭesigned for concurrent modification (such as a ConcurrentHashMap), However, if the provided stream operations do not offer the desiredįunctionality, the erator() and BaseStream.spliterator() operationsĬan be used to perform a controlled traversal.Ī stream pipeline, like the "widgets" example above, can be viewed asĪ query on the stream source. Instead concerned with declaratively describing their source and theĬomputational operations which will be performed in aggregate on that source. Provide a means to directly access or manipulate their elements, and are Management of, and access to, their elements. Collections are primarily concerned with the efficient Terminal operation is initiated, and source elements are consumed onlyĬollections and streams, while bearing some superficial similarities, Streams are lazy computation on the source data is only performed when the Terminal operation (which produces a result or side-effect, such Stream into another stream, such as filter(Predicate)), and a

In addition to Stream, which is a stream of object references, Then this stream is summed to produce a total weight. Transform it into a stream of int values representing the weight ofĮach red widget. We createĪ stream of Widget objects via Collection.stream(),įilter it to produce a stream containing only the red widgets, and then In this example, widgets is a Collection.

The following example illustrates an aggregate operation using A sequence of elements supporting sequential and parallel aggregate
