Java 8 Stream and operation on arrays

by

There are new methods added to java.util.Arrays to convert an array into a Java 8 stream which can then be used for summing etc.

int sum =  Arrays.stream(myIntArray).sum();

Multiplying two arrays is a little more difficult because I can’t think of a way to get the value AND the index at the same time as a Stream operation. This means you probably have to stream over the indexes of the array.

//in this example a[] and b[] are same length
int[] a = ...
int[] b = ...
 
int[] result = new int[a.length];

IntStream.range(0, a.length).forEach(i -> result[i] = a[i] * b[i]);

Commenter @Holger points out you can use the map method instead of forEach like this:

int[] result = IntStream.range(0, a.length).map(i -> a[i] * b[i]).toArray();
