About Lambda, Stream, LocalDate of Java8

Purpose

Master how to use Lambda, Stream, and LocalDate so that you can use it on a regular basis!

Lambda

What is Lambda?

Lambda is a way to define and use a method as a variable. Lambda allows you to write fewer lines of code. You can also pass the defined method as an argument to another method. Write methods in Lambda that are used only a few times and are not referenced by other classes!

Basic writing

Since Lambda is written by omitting all the function names to be overridden, it is necessary to inherit the interface in which only one method is defined. Java already provides functional interfaces that can be used according to the number of arguments and return values, so I will use them.

** * Caution: When using primitive types such as int and double for arguments and return values, use the corresponding interfaces! (Because there is a difference in performance) ** Example) // When you want to send an int and receive an int Function → IntUnaryOperator

The detailed types of interfaces are listed below. http://www.ne.jp/asahi/hishidama/home/tech/java/functionalinterface.html#h_Function

There is an argument return value, Function

It is defined as the argument type and the return type. Execution uses the ʻapply () method. There is also a BiFunction that can accept two arguments. If you want to specify int type for argument and return value, use ʻIntUnaryOperator instead of Function. The execution method is ʻapplyAsInt ()`.


import java.util.function.*;

//In main
Function<String, String> f = (i) -> { return i +"OK"; };
System.out.println(f.apply("test"));  // testOK

There are only arguments, Consumer

Specifies the argument type. Execution uses the ʻaccept () method. If you want to specify the argument as int type, use ʻIntConsumer.

import java.util.function.*;

//In main
Consumer<String> c = i -> { System.out.println(i); };
c.accept("testOK");  // testOK

There is only a return value, Supplier

Specifies the return type. Execution uses the get () method. If you want to specify the return value as int type, use ʻIntSupplier. The execution method is getAsInt ()`.

import java.util.function.*;

//In main
Supplier<String> s = () -> { return "testOK"; };
System.out.println(s.get());  // testOK

Predicate that takes an argument and returns a boolean value

Execution uses the test () method. The difference between Boolean specification of Function and Predicate is that Function returns Boolean, while Predicate returns boolean which is a primitive type. If you want to specify the argument as int type, use ʻIntPredicate`.

import java.util.function.*;

//In main
Predicate<String> p = (i) -> { return i.equals("AAA"); };
System.out.println(p.test("AAA"));  // true

Stream

What is Stream?

You can concisely write a List type for statement. You can also use Lambda as a method argument. When using it, import java.util.stream.

First, consider a normal for statement.

for(int i; i < 10; i++){
    System.out.println(i+"This is the second time");
}

If you write this in Stream

IntStream.range(0, 10).forEach(i -> System.out.println(i+"This is the second time"));

It will be simple.

Also, if you want to turn for for the elements of ArrayList,

//For the variable list
list.stream().forEach(i -> [processing])

You can write like this.

Intermediate operation and termination operation

The stream has an intermediate operation method that converts each element and a terminal operation method that finally returns and stores the value. Please note that the converted elements will not be saved unless the termination operation is performed.

The intermediate operations are as follows. .skip (n) ... Discard the first n elements. .limit (n) ... Extract only the first n items. .filter (i-> [condition]) ... Extract the one that meets the condition. .distinct () ... Remove duplicates. .sorted () ... Sort in natural order. It is also possible to specify a sort rule in parentheses. .map (i-> [Processing]) ... Process all elements.

The termination operations are as follows. .forEach (i-> [Processing]) ... Output. .findFirst () ... Returns the first element. .collect () ... Create the result. (Processing changes depending on the argument.) .count () ... Returns the number of elements. .allMach ([condition]) .anyMach ([condition]) .noneMach ([condition]) ... Determine if there is a match.

LocalDate

What is Local Date?

A class that processes dates. It's easier to handle than the Calendar class I've been using. Import and use java.time.LocalDate.

I will raise the operations that are often used below.

Get current date

LocalDate date = LocalDate.now();

Date set

Set 2020-01-01 localDate date = LocalDate.of(2020, 1, 1); Unlike Calendar, you don't have to set Month to -1!

String to date set

Import java.time.format.DateTimeFormatter.

date = LocalDate.parse("20200101",DateTimeFormater.ofPattern("yyyyMMdd")); Also possible below date = LocalDate.parse("2020-01-01");

Get date

Year date.getYear(); Month date.getMonth(); Day date.getDayOfMonth(); Day of the week date.getDayOfWeek();

Addition and subtraction

+10 days date.plusDays(10); -The 10th date.miusDays(10); +2 years date.plusYears(2);

Difference between dates

Import java.time.temporal.ChronoUnit.

Date difference long diff = ChronoUnit.DAYS.between(date1, date2);
