Welcome to another deep-dive interview preparation video! In this session, we focus on Java 8 Stream API, one of the most important topics for developers and a recurring favorite in Java 8 interview questions. Whether you’re preparing for coding interviews, brushing up for senior developer rounds, or just want to strengthen your fundamentals, this video will help you master both theory and practical coding examples.

What you’ll learn in this video:
1. What is a stream pipeline?
Three key parts: Source, Intermediate operations, Terminal operations
Why laziness matters in performance optimization
Example with filter, map, and limit
2. map vs flatMap – when to use each
Transforming elements 1-to-1
Flattening nested collections 1-to-many
3. Encounter order and the difference between forEach vs forEachOrdered in sequential vs parallel streams
4. Non-interference and statelessness – why you should avoid side effects inside stream pipelines
5. Common pitfalls with Collectors.toMap and how to fix duplicate key issues with merge functions and map suppliers
6. Reduce in Java 8 – 2-arg vs 3-arg versions, identity values, and common mistakes in parallel streams
7. Powerful grouping patterns using groupingBy, mapping, collectingAndThen and downstream collectors
8. When to use parallel streams, what threads are used, and when they hurt performance instead of helping
9. Short-circuiting operations (anyMatch, allMatch, noneMatch, findFirst, findAny) explained with real examples
10. Why primitive streams (IntStream, LongStream, DoubleStream) are more efficient than boxed streams
11. Collector characteristics (CONCURRENT, UNORDERED, IDENTITY_FINISH) and how they affect performance in parallel pipelines
12. Creating infinite or generated streams safely with Stream.generate and Stream.iterate

By the end of this video, you’ll not only be able to answer common Java 8 Stream API interview questions, but also demonstrate real-world coding patterns that show depth of knowledge.
