java io streams code example

Example 1: java streams

the Stream API is used to process collections
of objects. A stream is a sequence of objects
that supports various methods which can be
pipelined to produce the desired result.
  It is very similar to build().perform() 
  method in Actions class. It is chaining
  some operations in an order.

The features of Java stream are:
- A stream is not a data structure instead
it takes input from the Collections, 
Arrays or I/O channels.
- Streams don’t change the original data
structure, they only provide the result
as per the pipelined methods.
- Each intermediate operation is lazily
executed and returns a stream as a result,
hence various intermediate operations
can be pipelined. Terminal operations mark
the end of the stream and return the result.

Different Operations On Streams:

map ==> The map method is used to return a
stream consisting of the results of applying
the given function to the elements of this stream.
List number = Arrays.asList(2,3,4,5);
List square = number.stream().map(x->x*x).collect(Collectors.toList());

filter ==> The filter method is used to
select elements as per the Predicate passed as argument.
List names = Arrays.asList("Reflection","Collection","Stream");
List result = names.stream().filter(s->s.startsWith("S")).collect(Collectors.toList());

sorted ==> The sorted method is used to sort the stream.
List names = Arrays.asList("Reflection","Collection","Stream");
List result = names.stream().sorted().collect(Collectors.toList());

ArrayList<String> list3 = new ArrayList(Arrays.asList("monkey", "donkey","onion"));
List<String> list4 = list3.stream().filter(each->!"onion".equals(each)).collect(Collectors.toList());
System.out.println(list4);

static String reverse(String word){
    return Arrays.stream(word.split("")).reduce("", (x,y) -> y+x );
}

Example 2: java streams

Arrays.asList("a1", "a2", "a3")
    .stream()
    .findFirst()
    .ifPresent(System.out::println);  // a1

Example 3: IO STREAMS in java

import java.io.*;
public class CopyFile {

   public static void main(String args[]) throws IOException {  
      FileInputStream in = null;
      FileOutputStream out = null;

      try {
         in = new FileInputStream("input.txt");
         out = new FileOutputStream("output.txt");
         
         int c;
         while ((c = in.read()) != -1) {
            out.write(c);
         }
      }finally {
         if (in != null) {
            in.close();
         }
         if (out != null) {
            out.close();
         }
      }
   }
}
