StreamEx (StreamEx 0.6.5 API)

Object
- AbstractStreamEx<T,StreamEx<T>>
- - StreamEx<T>

Type Parameters:

T - the type of the stream elements

All Implemented Interfaces:

AutoCloseable, Iterable<T>, BaseStream<T,Stream<T>>, Stream<T>
```
public class StreamEx<T>
extends AbstractStreamEx<T,StreamEx<T>>
```
A Stream implementation with additional functionality.
While StreamEx implements Iterable, it is not a general-purpose Iterable as it supports only a single Iterator; invoking the iterator method to obtain a second or subsequent iterator throws IllegalStateException.

 The action is called at most once. For parallel stream pipelines, it's not guaranteed in which thread it will be executed, so if it modifies shared state, it is responsible for providing the required synchronization.
 Note that the action might not be called at all if the first element is not consumed from the input (for example, if there's short-circuiting operation downstream which stopped the stream before the first element).
 This method exists mainly to support debugging.
 
 Parameters:
 
 action - a non-interfering action to perform on the first stream element as it is consumed from the stream
 
 Returns:
 
 the new stream

```
 Returns true if this stream contains the specified value.
 This is a short-circuiting terminal operation.
 
 Parameters:
 
 value - the value to look for in the stream. If the value is null then the method will return true if this stream contains at least one null. Otherwise value.equals() will be called to compare stream elements with the value.
 
 Returns:
 
 true if this stream contains the specified value

 Stream.anyMatch(Predicate)
 - without
```
public StreamEx<T> without(T value)
```
 Returns a stream consisting of the elements of this stream that don't equal to the given value.
 This is an intermediate operation.
 
 Parameters:
 
 value - the value to remove from the stream. If the value is null then all nulls will be removed (like nonNull() works). Otherwise value.equals() will be used to test stream values and matching elements will be removed.
 
 Returns:
 
 the new stream

 - without
```
@SafeVarargs
public final StreamEx<T> without(T... values)
```
 Returns a stream consisting of the elements of this stream that don't equal to any of the supplied values.
 This is an intermediate operation. May return itself if no values were supplied.
 Current implementation scans the supplied values linearly for every stream element. If you have many values, consider using more efficient alternative instead. For example, remove(StreamEx.of(values).toSet()::contains).
 Future implementations may take advantage on using hashCode() or compareTo for Comparable objects to improve the performance.
 If the values array is changed between calling this method and finishing the stream traversal, then the result of the stream traversal is undefined: changes may or may not be taken into account.
 
 Parameters:
 
 values - the values to remove from the stream.
 
 Returns:
 
 the new stream

 - reverseSorted
```
public StreamEx<T> reverseSorted()
```
 Returns a StreamEx consisting of the elements of this stream, sorted according to reverse natural order. If the elements of this stream are not Comparable, a ClassCastException may be thrown when the terminal operation is executed.
 For ordered streams, the sort is stable. For unordered streams, no stability guarantees are made.
 This is a stateful intermediate operation.
 
 Returns:
 
 the new stream
 
 Since:
 
 0.2.0
 - distinct
```
public StreamEx<T> distinct(long atLeast)
```
 Returns a StreamEx consisting of the distinct elements (according to Object.equals(Object)) which appear at least specified number of times in this stream.
 This operation is not guaranteed to be stable: any of equal elements can be selected for the output. However if this stream is ordered then order is preserved.
 This is a stateful quasi-intermediate operation.
 
 Parameters:
 
 atLeast - minimal number of occurrences required to select the element. If atLeast is 1 or less, then this method is equivalent to AbstractStreamEx.distinct().
 
 Returns:
 
 the new stream
 
 Since:
 
 0.3.1
 
 See Also:
 
 AbstractStreamEx.distinct()
 - pairMap
```
public <R> StreamEx<R> pairMap(BiFunction<? super T,? super T,? extends R> mapper)
```
 Returns a stream consisting of the results of applying the given function to the every adjacent pair of elements of this stream.
 This is a quasi-intermediate operation.
 The output stream will contain one element less than this stream. If this stream contains zero or one element the output stream will be empty.
 
 Type Parameters:
 
 R - The element type of the new stream
 
 Parameters:
 
 mapper - a non-interfering, stateless function to apply to each adjacent pair of this stream elements.
 
 Returns:
 
 the new stream
 
 Since:
 
 0.2.1
 - forPairs
```
public void forPairs(BiConsumer<? super T,? super T> action)
```
 Performs an action for each adjacent pair of elements of this stream.
 This is a terminal operation.
 The behavior of this operation is explicitly nondeterministic. For parallel stream pipelines, this operation does not guarantee to respect the encounter order of the stream, as doing so would sacrifice the benefit of parallelism. For any given element, the action may be performed at whatever time and in whatever thread the library chooses. If the action accesses shared state, it is responsible for providing the required synchronization.
 
 Parameters:
 
 action - a non-interfering action to perform on the elements
 
 Since:
 
 0.2.2
 - collapse
```
public StreamEx<T> collapse(BiPredicate<? super T,? super T> collapsible,
 BinaryOperator<T> merger)
```
 Merge series of adjacent elements which satisfy the given predicate using the merger function and return a new stream.
 This is a quasi-intermediate partial reduction operation.
 This operation is equivalent to collapse(collapsible, Collectors.reducing(merger)).map(Optional::get) , but more efficient.
 
 Parameters:
 
 collapsible - a non-interfering, stateless predicate to apply to the pair of adjacent elements of the input stream which returns true for elements which are collapsible.
 
 merger - a non-interfering, stateless, associative function to merge two adjacent elements for which collapsible predicate returned true. Note that it can be applied to the results if previous merges.
 
 Returns:
 
 the new stream
 
 Since:
 
 0.3.1
 - collapse
```
public <R,A> StreamEx<R> collapse(BiPredicate<? super T,? super T> collapsible,
 Collector<? super T,A,R> collector)
```
 Perform a partial mutable reduction using the supplied Collector on a series of adjacent elements.
 This is a quasi-intermediate partial reduction operation.
 
 Type Parameters:
 
 R - the type of the elements in the resulting stream
 
 A - the intermediate accumulation type of the Collector
 
 Parameters:
 
 collapsible - a non-interfering, stateless predicate to apply to the pair of adjacent elements of the input stream which returns true for elements which should be collected together.
 
 collector - a Collector which is used to combine the adjacent elements.
 
 Returns:
 
 the new stream
 
 Since:
 
 0.3.6
 - collapse
```
public StreamEx<T> collapse(BiPredicate<? super T,? super T> collapsible)
```
 Returns a stream consisting of elements of this stream where every series of elements matched the predicate is replaced with first element from the series.
 This is a quasi-intermediate partial reduction operation.
 This operation is equivalent to collapse(collapsible, MoreCollectors.first()).map(Optional::get) , but more efficient.
 Note that this operation always tests the adjacent pairs of input elements. In some scenarios it's desired to test every element with the first element of the current series. In this case consider using MoreCollectors.dominators(BiPredicate) collector instead.
 For sorted stream collapse(Objects::equals) is equivalent to distinct().
 
 Parameters:
 
 collapsible - a non-interfering, stateless predicate to apply to the pair of adjacent input elements which returns true for elements which are collapsible.
 
 Returns:
 
 the new stream
 
 Since:
 
 0.3.1
 
 See Also:
 
 MoreCollectors.dominators(BiPredicate)
 - runLengths
```
public EntryStream<T,Long> runLengths()
```
 Collapses adjacent equal elements and returns an EntryStream where keys are input elements and values specify how many elements were collapsed.
 This is a quasi-intermediate partial reduction operation.
 For sorted input runLengths().toMap() is the same as groupingBy(Function.identity(), Collectors.counting()), but may perform faster. For unsorted input the resulting stream may contain repeating keys.
 
 Returns:
 
 the new stream
 
 Since:
 
 0.3.3
 - groupRuns
```
public StreamEx<List<T>> groupRuns(BiPredicate<? super T,? super T> sameGroup)
```
 Returns a stream consisting of lists of elements of this stream where adjacent elements are grouped according to supplied predicate.
 This is a quasi-intermediate partial reduction operation.
 There are no guarantees on the type, mutability, serializability, or thread-safety of the List objects of the resulting stream.
 This operation is equivalent to collapse(sameGroup, Collectors.toList()), but more efficient.
 
 Parameters:
 
 sameGroup - a non-interfering, stateless predicate to apply to the pair of adjacent elements which returns true for elements which belong to the same group.
 
 Returns:
 
 the new stream
 
 Since:
 
 0.3.1
 - intervalMap
```
public  StreamEx intervalMap(BiPredicate<? super T,? super T> sameInterval,
 BiFunction<? super T,? super T,? extends U> mapper)
```
 Returns a stream consisting of results of applying the given function to the intervals created from the source elements.
 This is a quasi-intermediate partial reduction operation. This operation is the same as groupRuns(sameInterval).map(list -> mapper.apply(list.get(0), list.get(list.size()-1))) , but has less overhead as only first and last elements of each interval are tracked.
 
 Type Parameters:
 
 U - the type of the resulting elements
 
 Parameters:
 
 sameInterval - a non-interfering, stateless predicate to apply to the pair of adjacent elements which returns true for elements which belong to the same interval.
 
 mapper - a non-interfering, stateless function to apply to the interval borders and produce the resulting element. If value was not merged to the interval, then mapper will receive the same value twice, otherwise it will receive the leftmost and the rightmost values which were merged to the interval. Intermediate interval elements are not available to the mapper. If they are important, consider using groupRuns(BiPredicate) and map afterwards.
 
 Returns:
 
 the new stream

 - withFirst
```
public <R> StreamEx<R> withFirst(BiFunction<? super T,? super T,? extends R> mapper)
```
 Returns a stream consisting of the results of applying the given function to the the first element and every other element of this stream.
 This is a quasi-intermediate operation.
 The size of the resulting stream is one element less than the input stream. If the input stream is empty or contains just one element, then the output stream will be empty.
 
 Type Parameters:
 
 R - The element type of the new stream
 
 Parameters:
 
 mapper - a non-interfering, stateless function to apply to the first stream element and every other element
 
 Returns:

 This is a quasi-intermediate operation.
 The size of the resulting stream is one element less than the input stream. If the input stream is empty or contains just one element, then the output stream will be empty.

 - zipWith
```
public <V,R> StreamEx<R> zipWith(Stream<V> other,
 BiFunction<? super T,? super V,? extends R> mapper)
```
 Creates a new StreamEx which is the result of applying of the mapper BiFunction to the corresponding elements of this stream and the supplied other stream. The resulting stream is ordered if both of the input streams are ordered, and parallel if either of the input streams is parallel. When the resulting stream is closed, the close handlers for both input streams are invoked.
 This is a quasi-intermediate operation.
 The resulting stream finishes when either of the input streams finish: the rest of the longer stream is discarded. It's unspecified whether the rest elements of the longer stream are actually consumed.
 The stream created by this operation may have poor characteristics and parallelize badly, so it should be used only when there's no other choice. If both input streams are random-access lists or arrays, consider using zip(List, List, BiFunction) or zip(Object[], Object[], BiFunction) respectively. If you want to zip the stream with the stream of indices, consider using EntryStream.of(List) instead.
 
 Type Parameters:
 
 V - the type of the other stream elements
 
 R - the type of the resulting stream elements
 
 Parameters:
 
 other - the stream to zip this stream with
 
 mapper - a non-interfering, stateless function to apply to the corresponding pairs of this stream and other stream elements
 
 Returns:
 
 the new stream

 zipWith(Stream)
 - zipWith
```
public <V> EntryStream<T,V> zipWith(Stream<V> other)
```
 Creates a new EntryStream which keys are elements of this stream and values are the corresponding elements of the supplied other stream. The resulting stream is ordered if both of the input streams are ordered, and parallel if either of the input streams is parallel. When the resulting stream is closed, the close handlers for both input streams are invoked.
 This is a quasi-intermediate operation.

If you want to zip the stream with the stream of indices, consider using EntryStream.of(List) instead.
 
 Type Parameters:

 - headTail
```
public <R> StreamEx<R> headTail(BiFunction<? super T,? super StreamEx<T>,? extends Stream<R>> mapper)
```
 Creates a new Stream which is the result of applying of the mapper BiFunction to the first element of the current stream (head) and the stream containing the rest elements (tail). The mapper may return null instead of empty stream.
 This is a quasi-intermediate operation with tail-stream optimization.
 The mapper function is not applied when the input stream is empty. This operation is equivalent to headTail(mapper, () -> null). Otherwise it's applied at most once during the stream terminal operation execution. Sometimes it's useful to generate stream recursively like this:
```
 // Returns lazily-generated stream which performs scanLeft operation on the input
 static <T> StreamEx<T> scanLeft(StreamEx<T> input, BinaryOperator<T> operator) {
 return input.headTail((head, tail) -> 
 scanLeft(tail.mapFirst(cur -> operator.apply(head, cur)), operator).prepend(head));
 }
```
 When possible, use tail-stream optimized operations to reduce the call stack depth. In particular, the example shown above uses only headTail(), mapFirst(Function) and prepend(Object...) operations, all of them are tail-stream optimized, so it will not fail with StackOverflowError on long input stream.
 This operation might perform badly with parallel streams. Sometimes the same semantics could be expressed using other operations like withFirst(BiFunction) or mapFirst(Function) which parallelize better. Consider using these methods if its possible in your case.
 Type Parameters:
 
 R - The element type of the new stream
 
 Parameters:
 
 mapper - a non-interfering function to apply to the first stream element and the stream of the rest elements which creates a new stream.
 
 Returns:
 
 the new stream

 - headTail
```
public <R> StreamEx<R> headTail(BiFunction<? super T,? super StreamEx<T>,? extends Stream<R>> mapper,
 Supplier<? extends Stream<R>> supplier)
```
 Creates a new Stream which is the result of applying of the mapper BiFunction to the first element of the current stream (head) and the stream containing the rest elements (tail) or supplier if the current stream is empty. The mapper or supplier may return null instead of empty stream.
 This is a quasi-intermediate operation with tail-stream optimization.
 Either mapper function or supplier (but not both) is applied at most once during the stream terminal operation execution. Sometimes it's useful to generate stream recursively like this:
```
 // Stream of fixed size batches
 static <T> StreamEx<List<T>> batches(StreamEx<T> input, int size) {
 return batches(input, size, Collections.emptyList());
 }

 private static <T> StreamEx<List<T>> batches(StreamEx<T> input, int size, List<T> cur) {
 return input.headTail((head, tail) -> cur.size() >= size 
 ? batches(tail, size, Arrays.asList(head)).prepend(cur)
 : batches(tail, size, StreamEx.of(cur).append(head).toList()), 
 () -> Stream.of(cur));
 }
```
 When possible, use tail-stream optimized operations to reduce the call stack depth. In particular, the example shown above uses only headTail(), and prepend(Object...) operations, both of them are tail-stream optimized, so it will not fail with StackOverflowError on long input stream.
 This operation might perform badly with parallel streams. Sometimes the same semantics could be expressed using other operations like withFirst(BiFunction) or mapFirst(Function) which parallelize better. Consider using these methods if its possible in your case.

```
public static StreamEx<String> ofLines(BufferedReader reader)
```
 Returns a StreamEx, the elements of which are lines read from the supplied BufferedReader. The StreamEx is lazily populated, i.e., read only occurs during the terminal stream operation.
 The reader must not be operated on during the execution of the terminal stream operation. Otherwise, the result of the terminal stream operation is undefined.
 After execution of the terminal stream operation there are no guarantees that the reader will be at a specific position from which to read the next character or line.
 If an IOException is thrown when accessing the underlying BufferedReader, it is wrapped in an UncheckedIOException which will be thrown from the StreamEx method that caused the read to take place. This method will return a StreamEx if invoked on a BufferedReader that is closed. Any operation on that stream that requires reading from the BufferedReader after it is closed, will cause an UncheckedIOException to be thrown.

public static StreamEx<String> ofLines(Path path)
 throws IOException
```
 Read all lines from a file as a StreamEx. Bytes from the file are decoded into characters using the UTF-8 charset and the same line terminators as specified by Files.readAllLines(Path, Charset) are supported.
 After this method returns, then any subsequent I/O exception that occurs while reading from the file or when a malformed or unmappable byte sequence is read, is wrapped in an UncheckedIOException that will be thrown from the StreamEx method that caused the read to take place. In case an IOException is thrown when closing the file, it is also wrapped as an UncheckedIOException.
 The returned stream encapsulates a Reader. If timely disposal of file system resources is required, the try-with-resources construct should be used to ensure that the stream's close method is invoked after the stream operations are completed.

 - split
```
public static StreamEx<String> split(CharSequence str,
 Pattern pattern)
```
 Creates a stream from the given input sequence around matches of the given pattern.
 The stream returned by this method contains each substring of the input sequence that is terminated by another subsequence that matches this pattern or is terminated by the end of the input sequence. The substrings in the stream are in the order in which they occur in the input. Trailing empty strings will be discarded and not encountered in the stream.
 If the given pattern does not match any subsequence of the input then the resulting stream has just one element, namely the input sequence in string form.
 When there is a positive-width match at the beginning of the input sequence then an empty leading substring is included at the beginning of the stream. A zero-width match at the beginning however never produces such empty leading substring.
 If the input sequence is mutable, it must remain constant from the stream creation until the execution of the terminal stream operation. Otherwise, the result of the terminal stream operation is undefined.
 
 Parameters:
 
 str - The character sequence to be split
 
 pattern - The pattern to use for splitting
 
 Returns:
 
 The stream of strings computed by splitting the input around matches of this pattern

```
public static StreamEx<String> split(CharSequence str,
 String regex)
```
 Creates a stream from the given input sequence around matches of the given pattern represented as String.
 This method is equivalent to StreamEx.split(str, Pattern.compile(regex)).
 
 Parameters:
 
 str - The character sequence to be split
 
 regex - The regular expression String to use for splitting
 
 Returns:
 
 The stream of strings computed by splitting the input around matches of this pattern

public static StreamEx<String> split(CharSequence str,
 char delimiter,
 boolean trimEmpty)
```
 Creates a stream from the given input sequence around matches of the given character.
 The stream returned by this method contains each substring of the input sequence that is terminated by supplied delimiter character or is terminated by the end of the input sequence. The substrings in the stream are in the order in which they occur in the input. If the trimEmpty parameter is true, trailing empty strings will be discarded and not encountered in the stream.
 If the given delimiter character does not appear in the input then the resulting stream has just one element, namely the input sequence in string form.
 If the input sequence is mutable, it must remain constant from the stream creation until the execution of the terminal stream operation. Otherwise, the result of the terminal stream operation is undefined.
 
 Parameters:
 
 str - The character sequence to be split
 
 delimiter - The delimiter character to use for splitting
 
 trimEmpty - If true, trailing empty strings will be discarded
 
 Returns:
 
 The stream of strings computed by splitting the input around the delimiters

 - iterate
```
public static <T> StreamEx<T> iterate(T seed,
 UnaryOperator<T> f)
```
 Returns an infinite sequential ordered StreamEx produced by iterative application of a function f to an initial element seed, producing a StreamEx consisting of seed, f(seed), f(f(seed)), etc.
 The first element (position 0) in the StreamEx will be the provided seed. For n > 0, the element at position n, will be the result of applying the function f to the element at position n - 1.
 
 Type Parameters:
 
 T - the type of stream elements
 
 Parameters:
 
 seed - the initial element
 
 f - a function to be applied to to the previous element to produce a new element
 
 Returns:
 
 a new sequential StreamEx

 iterate(Object, Predicate, UnaryOperator)
 - iterate
```
public static <T> StreamEx<T> iterate(T seed,
 Predicate<? super T> predicate,
 UnaryOperator<T> f)
```
 Returns a sequential ordered StreamEx produced by iterative application of a function to an initial element, conditioned on satisfying the supplied predicate. The stream terminates as soon as the predicate function returns false.
 StreamEx.iterate should produce the same sequence of elements as produced by the corresponding for-loop:
```
 for (T index=seed; predicate.test(index); index = f.apply(index)) { 
 ... 
 }
 
```
 The resulting sequence may be empty if the predicate does not hold on the seed value. Otherwise the first element will be the supplied seed value, the next element (if present) will be the result of applying the function f to the seed value, and so on iteratively until the predicate indicates that the stream should terminate.
 Type Parameters:
 
 T - the type of stream elements
 
 Parameters:
 
 seed - the initial element
 
 predicate - a predicate to apply to elements to determine when the stream must terminate.
 
 f - a function to be applied to the previous element to produce a new element
 
 Returns:
 
 a new sequential StreamEx

 - generate
```
public static <T> StreamEx<T> generate(Supplier<T> s)
```
 Returns an infinite sequential unordered StreamEx where each element is generated by the provided Supplier. This is suitable for generating constant streams, streams of random elements, etc.
 
 Type Parameters:
 
 T - the type of stream elements
 
 Parameters:
 
 s - the Supplier of generated elements
 
 Returns:
 
 a new infinite sequential unordered StreamEx
 
 See Also:
 
 Stream.generate(Supplier)
 - produce
```
public static <T> StreamEx<T> produce(Predicate<Consumer<? super T>> producer)
```
 Return an ordered stream produced by consecutive calls of the supplied producer until it returns false.
 The producer function may call the passed consumer any number of times and return true if the producer should be called again or false otherwise. It's guaranteed that the producer will not be called anymore, once it returns false.
 This method is particularly useful when producer changes the mutable object which should be left in known state after the full stream consumption. For example, the following code could be used to drain elements from the queue until it's empty or sentinel is reached (consuming the sentinel):
```
 return StreamEx.produce(action -> {
 T next = queue.poll();
 if(next == null || next.equals(sentinel))
 return false;
 action.accept(next);
 return true;
 });
```
 Note however that if a short-circuiting operation is used, then the final state of the mutable object cannot be guaranteed.
 Type Parameters:
 
 T - the type of the resulting stream elements
 
 Parameters:
 
 producer - a predicate which calls the passed consumer to emit stream element(s) and returns true if it producer should be applied again.
 
 Returns:
 
 the new stream

 - constant
```
public static <T> StreamEx<T> constant(T value,

 - ofPairs
```
public static <U,T> StreamEx<T> ofPairs(List list,
 BiFunction<? super U,? super U,? extends T> mapper)
```
 Returns a sequential ordered StreamEx containing the results of applying the given mapper function to the all possible pairs of elements taken from the provided list.
 The indices of two elements supplied to the mapper function are always ordered: first element index is strictly less than the second element index. The pairs are lexicographically ordered. For example, for the list of three elements the stream of three elements is created: mapper.apply(list.get(0), list.get(1)), mapper.apply(list.get(0), list.get(2)) and mapper.apply(list.get(1), list.get(2)). The number of elements in the resulting stream is list.size()*(list.size()+1L)/2.
 The list values are accessed using List.get(int), so the list should provide fast random access. The list is assumed to be unmodifiable during the stream operations.
 
 Type Parameters:
 
 U - type of the list elements
 
 T - type of the stream elements
 
 Parameters:
 
 list - a list to take the elements from
 
 mapper - a non-interfering, stateless function to apply to each pair of list elements.

 Returns a sequential ordered StreamEx containing the results of applying the given mapper function to the all possible pairs of elements taken from the provided array.
 The indices of two array elements supplied to the mapper function are always ordered: first element index is strictly less than the second element index. The pairs are lexicographically ordered. For example, for the array of three elements the stream of three elements is created: mapper.apply(array[0], array[1]), mapper.apply(array[0], array[2]) and mapper.apply(array[1], array[2]). The number of elements in the resulting stream is array.length*(array.length+1L)/2.

 int length)
```
 Returns a new StreamEx which consists of non-overlapping sublists of given source list having the specified length (the last sublist may be shorter).
 This method calls List.subList(int, int) internally, so source list must have it properly implemented as well as provide fast random access.

public static <T> StreamEx<List<T>> ofSubLists(List<T> source,
 int length,
 int shift)
```
 Returns a new StreamEx which consists of possibly-overlapping sublists of given source list having the specified length with given shift value.
 This method calls List.subList(int, int) internally, so source list must have it properly implemented as well as provide fast random access.
 The shift value specifies how many elements the next sublist is shifted relative to the previous one. If the shift value is greater than one, then the last sublist might be shorter than the specified length value. If the shift value is greater than the length, some elements will not appear in sublists at all.
 
 Type Parameters:
 
 T - the type of source list elements.
 
 Parameters:
 
 source - the source list
 
 length - the length of each sublist except possibly the last one (must be positive number).

```
public static <T> StreamEx<List<T>> cartesianProduct(Collection<? extends Collection<T>> source)
```
 Returns a new StreamEx which elements are List objects containing all possible tuples of the elements of supplied collection of collections. The whole stream forms an n-fold Cartesian product (or cross-product) of the input collections.
 Every stream element is the List of the same size as supplied collection. The first element in the list is taken from the first collection which appears in source and so on. The elements are ordered lexicographically according to the order of the input collections.
 There are no guarantees on the type, mutability, serializability, or thread-safety of the List elements. It's however guaranteed that each element is the distinct object.
 The supplied collection is assumed to be unchanged during the operation.
 
 Type Parameters:
 
 T - the type of the elements
 
 Parameters:
 
 source - the input collection of collections which is used to generate the cross-product.
 
 Returns:

public static <T,U> StreamEx cartesianProduct(Collection<? extends Collection<T>> source,
 U identity,
 BiFunction<U,? super T,U> accumulator)
```
 Returns a new StreamEx which elements are results of reduction of all possible tuples composed from the elements of supplied collection of collections. The whole stream forms an n-fold Cartesian product (or cross-product) of the input collections.
 The reduction is performed using the provided identity object and the accumulator function which is capable to accumulate new element. The accumulator function must not modify the previous accumulated value, but must produce new value instead. That's because partially accumulated values are reused for subsequent elements.
 This method is equivalent to the following:
```
 StreamEx.cartesianProduct(source).map(list -> StreamEx.of(list).foldLeft(identity, accumulator))
 
```
 However it may perform much faster as partial reduction results are reused.
 The supplied collection is assumed to be unchanged during the operation.
 Type Parameters:
 
 T - the type of the input elements
 
 U - the type of the elements of the resulting stream
 
 Parameters:
 
 source - the input collection of collections which is used to generate the cross-product.
 
 identity - the identity value
 
 accumulator - a non-interfering , stateless function for incorporating an additional element from source collection into a stream element.

 Every stream element is the List of the supplied size. The elements are ordered lexicographically according to the order of the input collection.
 There are no guarantees on the type, mutability, serializability, or thread-safety of the List elements. It's however guaranteed that each element is the distinct object.
