STREAM API

Prepared By

Java Stream API
In modern Java programming, working with large data sets and collections is a common

task. Whether you’re filtering, transforming, or analyzing data, the process often requires

looping over collections and manually applying operations. This is where Java's Stream API

comes in, making these operations much simpler and more readable.

Java Stream API introduced in Java 8, Stream API used to process,

iterate, perform operations on collections, until Java 7 we have for

and for Each to process the operations on collections.

A Stream is a sequence of objects that supports various methods

which can be pipelined to produce result.

A Stream is a not a data structure instead it takes input from the collections or arrays, Stream

don’t change original data structure; it produces the result as per the methods from source.

Stream is lazy and evaluates code only when required. Stream has two types of operations

Intermediate operations

Terminal operations

create stream Terminal


instance Operations

stream source Intermediate Operation


Filtering, Sorting, Mapping etc.. Final Output
Array, Collection, I/O stream etc..
Intermediate Operations

An intermediate operation is a lazy operation, which means that these operations are not

executed immediately. Instead, they are executed only when the execution reaches a terminal

operation. This lazy nature allows for optimization and efficiency when processing streams.

Let’s look at some of the most popular intermediate operations used in streams:

1. Map:

The Map operation is used to returns a stream consisting of the results of applying the given

function passed in as parameter to the elements of the stream

2. Filter:

The Filter operation is used to return a stream of elements which satisfies the given predicate

passed in as a parameter to the operation

3. Limit:

The limit operation restricts the number of elements in the stream to a specified size. This is

particularly useful when you need to process only a portion of the stream.

4. Distinct:

The distinct operation removes duplicates from the stream, ensuring that each element
appears only once in the resulting stream.

Terminal Operations

A Terminal operation is Eager operation that is to say, they start the execution of all previous

lazy operations presented in the stream. Terminal operation either return concrete types or

produce a result list. i.e., a reduce operation is returns single value by reducing the results into

a single sum. A collect operation will create a new list of results, here are the most popular

terminal operations used in the stream is


1. Collect :

Collect is used to return the list, map or set of results of intermediate operations performed on

stream

2. ForEach :

ForEach is used to iterate through every element of stream after completing the

execution of intermediate operation

3. Reduce :

Reduce is used to return the single value by cumulating the elements of stream after execution

of intermediate operation

Okay, Now lets dive into practical with Stream API

Problem : Java program to print all the elements of list by multiplying with two ?

Traditional Solution

Stream API Solution

Note: here by using method reference syntax i printed the data using system.out::println
Problem : Java program to print strings of an array which started with a specific keyword,
print all strings in uppercase

Traditional Solution

Stream API Solution

Problem : Java program to print sum of even numbers from the list

Traditional Solution
Stream API Solution

Note: here we can use sum method to calculate the sum of all elements, Instead of sum we can use reduce method
also to calculate sum as .reduce(0,(i,j)->i+j);

Problem : Java program to print all even numbers between 1 to 50

Traditional Solution

Stream API Solution

Stream API Solution

Practice Problems

Java program to list of divisible of 5 between 1 to 100 without using loops

Java program to calculate the sum of all even, odd numbers in a list using
streams

Java program to count the frequency of each word (ignoring case) and return a
map with words as keys and their frequencies as values

Java program to find the longest string in the list. If there are multiple strings
with the same maximum length,

Java program to print the total salary of the employees grouped by department
using the Stream API
