IntStream skip(long n) returns a stream consisting of the remaining elements of this stream after discarding the first n elements of the stream. If this stream contains fewer than n elements then an empty stream will be returned.
Note : IntStream skip() is a stateful intermediate operation i.e, it may incorporate state from previously seen elements when processing new elements.
Syntax :
IntStream skip(long n)
Parameter : IntStream is a sequence of primitive int-valued elements. This is the int primitive specialization of Stream. n is the number of leading elements to skip.
Return Value : The function returns the new stream after discarding first n elements.
Exception : The function throws IllegalArgumentException if n is negative.
Example 1 :
// Java code for IntStream skip() functionimport java.util.*;import java.util.stream.IntStream; class GFG { // Driver code public static void main(String[] args) { // Creating an IntStream of numbers [5, 6, .. 11] IntStream stream = IntStream.range(5, 12); // Using skip() to skip first 4 values in range // and displaying the rest of elements stream.skip(4).forEach(System.out::println); }} |
Output :
9 10 11
Example 2 :
// Java code for IntStream skip() functionimport java.util.*;import java.util.stream.IntStream; class GFG { // Driver code public static void main(String[] args) { // Creating an IntStream [5, 6, .. 11] IntStream stream = IntStream.range(5, 12); // Using parallel skip() to skip first 4 values in range // and displaying the rest of elements stream.parallel().skip(4).forEach(System.out::println); }} |
Output :
10 11 9
