LongStream 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 : LongStream skip() is a stateful intermediate operation i.e, it may incorporate state from previously seen elements when processing new elements.
Syntax :
LongStream skip(long n)
Parameter : LongStream is a sequence of primitive long-valued elements. This is the long 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 LongStream skip() functionimport java.util.*;import java.util.stream.LongStream;  class GFG {      // Driver code    public static void main(String[] args)    {        // Creating an LongStream of numbers [5, 6, .. 11]        LongStream stream = LongStream.range(5L, 12L);          // Using skip() to skip first 4 values in range        // and displaying the rest of elements        stream.skip(4).forEach(System.out::println);    }} |
Example 2 :
// Java code for LongStream skip() functionimport java.util.*;import java.util.stream.LongStream;  class GFG {      // Driver code    public static void main(String[] args)    {        // Creating an LongStream [5, 6, .. 11]        LongStream stream = LongStream.range(5L, 12L);          // Using parallel skip() to skip first        // 4 values in range and displaying the        // rest of elements        stream.parallel().skip(4).forEach(System.out::println);    }} |
