[epsilon-dev] Streams and first-order operations cheat sheet

[Sina Madani <sinadoom@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi everyone,

 

Now that we support lambdas in Epsilon, Jon suggested that it would be helpful to have some documentation which provides a convenient mapping between Epsilon’s first-order operations and Java’s Stream API. Whilst java.util.stream.* is more general and feature-rich, there is naturally a substantial overlap in terms of functionality and given that the names of the methods are different (and some of which are the same but do different things, e.g. “collect”), it may be helpful to users who are familiar with Streams API to have a quick reference on EOL’s equivalent built-in operations (or vice-versa). I have extended the existing article on lambda support on the website (see [1]). If you spot anything incorrect or have any suggestions, please let me know.

 

Thanks,

Sina
