Chapter 19, Problem 1RE

Explanation of Solution

a.

Stream<String>:

A stream is an immutable sequence of values that are processed lazily which means that accept the operations that are needed and skip the unnecessary operations. The stream library uses the lambda expressions. When using the lambda function with “Stream<String>”, the Java compiler will configure that the given object is string.

Expression to compute the number of elements starts with letter “a”:

words.filter(w -> w.startsWith("a")).count()

The “filter” method yields a stream of all elements that satisfies the given condition and “w” is the parameter variable. Here, the “startsWith()” method is used to check the prefix of a String and returns the Boolean value based on the specified letter or word. Then, the “count()” method counts the number of elements in the steam.

Explanation of Solution

b.

Expression to compute the number of elements whose length greater than ten starts with letter “a”:

words.filter(w -> w.startsWith("a")).filter(w -> w.length() > 10).count()

The “filter” method yields a stream of all elements that satisfies the given condition and “w” is the parameter variable. Here, the “startsWith()” method is used to check the prefix of a String “a” and also checks whether the length of the string is greater than “10” and the “count()” method counts the number of elements in the steam that satisfies the given condition.

Explanation of Solution

c.

Expression to compute the number of elements that limits to 100 that starts with letter “a”:

words.filter(w -> w.startsWith("a")).limit(100).count()

The “filter” method yields a stream of all elements that satisfies the given condition and “w” is the parameter variable. Here, the “startsWith()” method is used to check the prefix of a String “a” and the “limit()” method restricts the number of elements to 100. Finally, the “count()” method counts the number of elements in the steam.

Scenario You work for a small company that exports artisan chocolate. Although you measure your products in kilograms, you often get orders in both pounds and ounces. You have decided that rather than have to look up conversions all the time, you could use Python code to take inputs to make conversions between the different units of measurement. You will write three blocks of code. The first will convert kilograms to pounds and ounces. The second will convert pounds to kilograms and ounces. The third will convert ounces to kilograms and pounds. The conversions are as follows: 1 kilogram = 35.274 ounces 1 kilogram = 2.20462 pounds 1 pound = 0.453592 kilograms 1 pound = 16 ounces 1 ounce = 0.0283 kilograms 1 ounce = 0.0625 pounds For the purposes of this activity the template for a function has been provided. You have not yet covered functions in the course, but they are a way of reusing code. Like a Python script, a function can have zero or more parameters. In the code window you…
