Java8

Hey Tea Lovers! In this post, we will be talking about an unsung hero of the Java world, the Stream API which was added to Java 8 and has changed the way we do programs in java and how! It added neatness as well as made the program more readable. It helps you do functional programming in Java. Without any further ado, let us read more about this jewel. What is Stream API The Stream API, included in Java 8, is utilized for processing collections of objects. It is the flow of Objets on which various methods get applied in the pipeline to have the result. Simply put, it flows through the given Collection<Object> and applies the different methods on the Object to aggregate them into the desired result without affecting the original Object. ...

Hey! tea lovers. This post is about Java’s functional interfaces. We will talk about the basic ones briefly. These functional interfaces are used by Stream API heavily, so knowing them will give you a huge advantage. Not just streams you can use it anywhere. Prerequisites for Functional Interfaces Not much, Just make sure the concept of functional interfaces and lambdas are clear. You can find the code on GitHub here or the full project here. And yes fill your cup of tea to sip and learn with me. ...

Hey, tea lovers! Today, we are going to tackle the topic of multithreading in Java. Have you ever heard the phrase “when doing one thing, prepare for another and execute a third”? This is the essence of multi-threading, where we perform multiple tasks concurrently. With Java, you can achieve this by creating multiple threads within your program. When we talk about concurrency in Java we inherently talk about multi-threading. Multithreading refers to running multiple threads concurrently. Thread is just a lightweight sub-process. You can think of it as a mini process. Let us look at it by reading this post in your one thread and concurrently sipping that hot tea in another. ...
