Stream.distinct() in Java - GeeksforGeeks

Stream.distinct() in Java

Last Updated : 06 Dec, 2018

distinct()

returns a stream consisting of distinct elements in a stream. distinct() is the method of

Stream

interface. This method uses

hashCode()

and

equals()

methods to get distinct elements. In case of ordered streams, the selection of distinct elements is stable. But, in case of unordered streams, the selection of distinct elements is not necessarily stable and can change. distinct() performs

stateful intermediate operation

i.e, it maintains some state internally to accomplish the operation.

Syntax :
Stream<T> distinct()

Where, Stream is an interface and the function
returns a stream consisting of the distinct 
elements.

Below given are some examples to understand the implementation of the function in a better way.

Example 1 : Java
// Implementation of Stream.distinct()
// to get the distinct elements in the List
import java.util.*;

class GFG {

    // Driver code
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {

        // Creating a list of integers
        List<Integer> list = Arrays.asList(1, 1, 2, 3, 3, 4, 5, 5);

        System.out.println("The distinct elements are :");

        // Displaying the distinct elements in the list
        // using Stream.distinct() method
        list.stream().distinct().forEach(System.out::println);
    }
}

Output :

The distinct elements are :
1
2
3
4
5
Example 2 : Java
// Implementation of Stream.distinct()
// to get the distinct elements in the List
import java.util.*;

class GFG {

    // Driver code
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {

        // Creating a list of strings
        List<String> list = Arrays.asList("Geeks", "for", "Geeks",
                                          "GeeksQuiz", "for", "GeeksforGeeks");

        System.out.println("The distinct elements are :");

        // Displaying the distinct elements in the list
        // using Stream.distinct() method
        list.stream().distinct().forEach(System.out::println);
    }
}

Output :

The distinct elements are :
Geeks
for
GeeksQuiz
GeeksforGeeks
Example 3 : Java
// Implementation of Stream.distinct()
// to get the count of distinct elements
// in the List
import java.util.*;

class GFG {

    // Driver code
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {

        // Creating a list of strings
        List<String> list = Arrays.asList("Geeks", "for", "Geeks",
                                          "GeeksQuiz", "for", "GeeksforGeeks");

        // Storing the count of distinct elements
        // in the list using Stream.distinct() method
        long Count = list.stream().distinct().count();

        // Displaying the count of distinct elements
        System.out.println("The count of distinct elements is : " + Count);
    }
}

Output :

The count of distinct elements is : 4
