Collectors

class Collectors
kotlin.Any
   ↳ java.util.stream.Collectors

Implementations of Collector that implement various useful reduction operations, such as accumulating elements into collections, summarizing elements according to various criteria, etc.

The following are examples of using the predefined collectors to perform common mutable reduction tasks:

<code>// Accumulate names into a List
      List&lt;String&gt; list = people.stream().map(Person::getName).collect(Collectors.toList());
 
      // Accumulate names into a TreeSet
      Set&lt;String&gt; set = people.stream().map(Person::getName).collect(Collectors.toCollection(TreeSet::new));
 
      // Convert elements to strings and concatenate them, separated by commas
      String joined = things.stream()
                            .map(Object::toString)
                            .collect(Collectors.joining(", "));
 
      // Compute sum of salaries of employee
      int total = employees.stream()
                           .collect(Collectors.summingInt(Employee::getSalary)));
 
      // Group employees by department
      Map&lt;Department, List&lt;Employee&gt;&gt; byDept
          = employees.stream()
                     .collect(Collectors.groupingBy(Employee::getDepartment));
 
      // Compute sum of salaries by department
      Map&lt;Department, Integer&gt; totalByDept
          = employees.stream()
                     .collect(Collectors.groupingBy(Employee::getDepartment,
                                                    Collectors.summingInt(Employee::getSalary)));
 
      // Partition students into passing and failing
      Map&lt;Boolean, List&lt;Student&gt;&gt; passingFailing =
          students.stream()
                  .collect(Collectors.partitioningBy(s -&gt; s.getGrade() &gt;= PASS_THRESHOLD));

Public methods

averagingDouble

Added in API level 24
static fun <T : Any!> averagingDouble(mapper: ToDoubleFunction<in T>!): Collector<T, *, Double!>!

Returns a Collector that produces the arithmetic mean of a double-valued function applied to the input elements. If no elements are present, the result is 0.

The average returned can vary depending upon the order in which values are recorded, due to accumulated rounding error in addition of values of differing magnitudes. Values sorted by increasing absolute magnitude tend to yield more accurate results. If any recorded value is a NaN or the sum is at any point a NaN then the average will be NaN.

Returns a Collector that produces the sum of a double-valued function applied to the input elements. If no elements are present, the result is 0.

The sum returned can vary depending upon the order in which values are recorded, due to accumulated rounding error in addition of values of differing magnitudes.
