Use Terminal Stream Operations in JShell in Java 9

JShell is an interactive tool that takes simple statements, expressions and etc.. as input, evaluates it, and prints the result immediately to the user.

Terminal Operation is a stream operation that takes a stream as input and doesn't return any output stream. For instance, a terminal operation can be applied to a lambda expression and returns a single result (A single primitive-value/object, or a single collection-of-objects). The reduce(), max(), and min() methods are a couple of such terminal operations.

In the below code snippet, we can use different terminal operations: min(), max(), and reduce() methods in JShell.

Snippet

jshell> IntStream.range(1, 11).reduce(0, (n1, n2) -> n1 + n2);
$1 ==> 55

jshell> List.of(23, 12, 34, 53).stream().max();
|  Error:
|  method max in interface java.util.stream.Stream cannot be applied to given types;
|    required: java.util.Comparator
|    found: no arguments
|    reason: actual and formal argument lists differ in length
|    List.of(23, 12, 34, 53).stream().max();
|    ^----------------------------------^

jshell> List.of(23, 12, 34, 53).stream().max((n1, n2) -> Integer.compare(n1, n2));
$2 ==> Optional[53]

jshell> $2.isPresent()
$3 ==> true

jshell> List.of(23, 12, 34, 53).stream().max((n1, n2) -> Integer.compare(n1, n2)).get();
$4 ==> 53

jshell> List.of(23, 12, 34, 53).stream().filter(e -> e%2==1).forEach(e -> System.out.println(e))
23
53

jshell> List.of(23, 12, 34, 53).stream().filter(e -> e%2==1).collect(Collectors.toList());
$6 ==> [23, 53]

jshell> List.of(23, 12, 34, 53).stream().min((n1, n2) -> Integer.compare(n1, n2)).get();
$8 ==> 12
