Streams

In Java, a stream is a sequence of elements that can be processed sequentially or in parallel.


Streams in Java are a new abstraction introduced in Java 8 to allow developers to perform
functional-style operations on collections of elements. Streams are based on the concept of
functional programming and provide a way to work with sequences of elements in a more
declarative and concise manner.

Streams in Java are designed to be processed in a pipelined fashion, where operations are
composed and executed in a lazy manner. This allows for more efficient processing of data and
better utilization of modern multi-core processors.

Streams in Java are characterized by the following key features:

 They are based on functional interfaces, such as Predicate, Function, and Consumer.
 They support intermediate operations, such as filter, map, and sorted, which allow for data
transformation and filtering.
 They support terminal operations, such as for Each, collect, and reduce, which produce a
result or side-effect.

Overall, streams in Java provide a powerful and flexible way to process collections of elements with
a focus on readability, performance, and parallelism.

There uses of Stream in Java are mentioned below:


1. Stream API is a way to express and process collections of
objects.
2. Enable us to perform operations like filtering, mapping, reducing
and sorting.
