Java Streams Count








Streams support a count operation through the count() method that returns the number of elements in the stream as a long.

The following code prints the number of elements in the stream of employee.

import java.time.LocalDate;
import java.time.Month;
import java.util.Arrays;
import java.util.List;
//from  w w  w.j a va 2 s .  c o  m
public class Main {
  public static void main(String[] args) {
    long personCount = Employee.persons().stream().count();
    System.out.println("Person count: " + personCount);
  }
}

class Employee {
  public static enum Gender {
    MALE, FEMALE
  }

  private long id;
  private String name;
  private Gender gender;
  private LocalDate dob;
  private double income;

  public Employee(long id, String name, Gender gender, LocalDate dob,
      double income) {
    this.id = id;
    this.name = name;
    this.gender = gender;
    this.dob = dob;
    this.income = income;
  }
  public static List<Employee> persons() {
    Employee p1 = new Employee(1, "Jake", Gender.MALE, LocalDate.of(1971,
        Month.JANUARY, 1), 2343.0);
    Employee p2 = new Employee(2, "Jack", Gender.MALE, LocalDate.of(1972,
        Month.JULY, 21), 7100.0);
    Employee p3 = new Employee(3, "Jane", Gender.FEMALE, LocalDate.of(1973,
        Month.MAY, 29), 5455.0);
    Employee p4 = new Employee(4, "Jode", Gender.MALE, LocalDate.of(1974,
        Month.OCTOBER, 16), 1800.0);
    Employee p5 = new Employee(5, "Jeny", Gender.FEMALE, LocalDate.of(1975,
        Month.DECEMBER, 13), 1234.0);
    Employee p6 = new Employee(6, "Jason", Gender.MALE, LocalDate.of(1976,
        Month.JUNE, 9), 3211.0);

    List<Employee> persons = Arrays.asList(p1, p2, p3, p4, p5, p6);

    return persons;
  }
}

The code above generates the following result.





Example 2

The following code uses the map() method to count the number of elements in a stream.

import java.time.LocalDate;
import java.time.Month;
import java.util.Arrays;
import java.util.List;
/* w w w.  j ava 2  s .c om*/
public class Main {
  public static void main(String[] args) {
    long  personCount = Employee.persons()
        .stream()
        .mapToLong(p ->  1L)
        .sum();
    System.out.println(personCount);
  }
}

class Employee {
  public static enum Gender {
    MALE, FEMALE
  }

  private long id;
  private String name;
  private Gender gender;
  private LocalDate dob;
  private double income;

  public Employee(long id, String name, Gender gender, LocalDate dob,
      double income) {
    this.id = id;
    this.name = name;
    this.gender = gender;
    this.dob = dob;
    this.income = income;
  }
  public static List<Employee> persons() {
    Employee p1 = new Employee(1, "Jake", Gender.MALE, LocalDate.of(1971,
        Month.JANUARY, 1), 2343.0);
    Employee p2 = new Employee(2, "Jack", Gender.MALE, LocalDate.of(1972,
        Month.JULY, 21), 7100.0);
    Employee p3 = new Employee(3, "Jane", Gender.FEMALE, LocalDate.of(1973,
        Month.MAY, 29), 5455.0);
    Employee p4 = new Employee(4, "Jode", Gender.MALE, LocalDate.of(1974,
        Month.OCTOBER, 16), 1800.0);
    Employee p5 = new Employee(5, "Jeny", Gender.FEMALE, LocalDate.of(1975,
        Month.DECEMBER, 13), 1234.0);
    Employee p6 = new Employee(6, "Jason", Gender.MALE, LocalDate.of(1976,
        Month.JUNE, 9), 3211.0);

    List<Employee> persons = Arrays.asList(p1, p2, p3, p4, p5, p6);

    return persons;
  }
}

The code above generates the following result.





Example 3

The following code uses the map() and reduce() methods to implement the count operation.

import java.time.LocalDate;
import java.time.Month;
import java.util.Arrays;
import java.util.List;
//  w ww . j a v  a2 s.  com
public class Main {
  public static void main(String[] args) {
    long  personCount = Employee.persons()
        .stream()
        .map(p  ->  1L)
        .reduce(0L,  Long::sum);
    System.out.println(personCount);
  }
}

class Employee {
  public static enum Gender {
    MALE, FEMALE
  }

  private long id;
  private String name;
  private Gender gender;
  private LocalDate dob;
  private double income;

  public Employee(long id, String name, Gender gender, LocalDate dob,
      double income) {
    this.id = id;
    this.name = name;
    this.gender = gender;
    this.dob = dob;
    this.income = income;
  }
  public static List<Employee> persons() {
    Employee p1 = new Employee(1, "Jake", Gender.MALE, LocalDate.of(1971,
        Month.JANUARY, 1), 2343.0);
    Employee p2 = new Employee(2, "Jack", Gender.MALE, LocalDate.of(1972,
        Month.JULY, 21), 7100.0);
    Employee p3 = new Employee(3, "Jane", Gender.FEMALE, LocalDate.of(1973,
        Month.MAY, 29), 5455.0);
    Employee p4 = new Employee(4, "Jode", Gender.MALE, LocalDate.of(1974,
        Month.OCTOBER, 16), 1800.0);
    Employee p5 = new Employee(5, "Jeny", Gender.FEMALE, LocalDate.of(1975,
        Month.DECEMBER, 13), 1234.0);
    Employee p6 = new Employee(6, "Jason", Gender.MALE, LocalDate.of(1976,
        Month.JUNE, 9), 3211.0);

    List<Employee> persons = Arrays.asList(p1, p2, p3, p4, p5, p6);

    return persons;
  }
}

The code above generates the following result.

Example 4

The following code uses the reduce() method to implement the count operation.

import java.time.LocalDate;
import java.time.Month;
import java.util.Arrays;
import java.util.List;
/*from   w w  w.  ja v  a 2 s  . c  o  m*/
public class Main {
  public static void main(String[] args) {
    long  personCount = Employee.persons()
        .stream()
        .reduce(0L, (partialCount,  person) ->  partialCount + 1L,  Long::sum);
    System.out.println(personCount);
  }
}

class Employee {
  public static enum Gender {
    MALE, FEMALE
  }

  private long id;
  private String name;
  private Gender gender;
  private LocalDate dob;
  private double income;

  public Employee(long id, String name, Gender gender, LocalDate dob,
      double income) {
    this.id = id;
    this.name = name;
    this.gender = gender;
    this.dob = dob;
    this.income = income;
  }
  public static List<Employee> persons() {
    Employee p1 = new Employee(1, "Jake", Gender.MALE, LocalDate.of(1971,
        Month.JANUARY, 1), 2343.0);
    Employee p2 = new Employee(2, "Jack", Gender.MALE, LocalDate.of(1972,
        Month.JULY, 21), 7100.0);
    Employee p3 = new Employee(3, "Jane", Gender.FEMALE, LocalDate.of(1973,
        Month.MAY, 29), 5455.0);
    Employee p4 = new Employee(4, "Jode", Gender.MALE, LocalDate.of(1974,
        Month.OCTOBER, 16), 1800.0);
    Employee p5 = new Employee(5, "Jeny", Gender.FEMALE, LocalDate.of(1975,
        Month.DECEMBER, 13), 1234.0);
    Employee p6 = new Employee(6, "Jason", Gender.MALE, LocalDate.of(1976,
        Month.JUNE, 9), 3211.0);

    List<Employee> persons = Arrays.asList(p1, p2, p3, p4, p5, p6);

    return persons;
  }
}

The code above generates the following result.
