Java Stream Operators

The document outlines the different types of operators in Java Streams, categorized into source, intermediate, terminal, and short-circuiting operators. Source operators create streams from various data sources, intermediate operators transform or filter data, terminal operators trigger execution and produce results, and short-circuiting operators enhance performance by stopping execution early based on conditions. Each category includes specific methods and their functionalities.

Operators in Java Streams

1️. Source Operators


Create a stream from a collection, array, or I/O source.

• stream() – Converts a collection into a sequential stream.

• parallelStream() – Creates a parallel stream for multi-threading.

• Stream.of() – Generates a stream from given values.

• Arrays.stream() – Converts an array into a stream.

• IntStream.range() – Creates a stream of numbers within a range.

• BufferedReader.lines() – Converts lines of a file into a stream.

2️. Intermediate Operators


Transform or filter data without executing immediately (lazy evaluation).

• filter() – Selects elements that match a given condition.

• map() – Transforms each element using a function.

• flatMap() – Flattens nested structures into a single stream.

• distinct() – Removes duplicate elements from the stream.

• sorted() – Sorts elements in natural or custom order.

• limit(n) – Restricts the stream to the first n elements.

• skip(n) – Skips the first n elements in the stream.

• peek() – Used for debugging without modifying elements.

3️. Terminal Operators


Trigger execution and produce a final result, consuming the stream.

• collect() – Converts a stream into a List, Set, or Map.

• forEach() – Performs an action for each element.

• count() – Returns the number of elements in the stream.


• findFirst() – Retrieves the first element of the stream.

• findAny() – Retrieves any element from the stream.

• reduce() – Aggregates elements into a single result.

• toArray() – Converts stream elements into an array.

4️. Short-Circuiting Operators


Stop execution early when a condition is met for better performance.

• anyMatch() – Returns true if any element matches a condition.

• allMatch() – Returns true if all elements match a condition.

• noneMatch() – Returns true if no elements match a condition.

• limit(n) – Stops processing after selecting n elements.

• findFirst() – Retrieves the first element and stops further operations.
