To understand this tutorial, you must have a basic knowledge of Java 8 (lambda expressions, Optional, method references) and the Stream API. If you aren’t familiar with these topics, please look at our previous articles on Java 8 Tutorial.

Streams are an update to the Java API that lets you manipulate data collections declaratively. Java provides a new package in Java 8 called java.util.stream. This package consists of classes, interfaces, and an enum to allow functional-style operations on the elements. You can use stream by importing java.util.stream package in your programs.

It is complex to cover all the Java 8 Stream API tutorial topics in a single article; hence, we divided it into separate articles for simplicity.
