Intermediate Operations

The power of Java's Stream API lies in its ability to process sequences of elements, making data manipulation not only efficient but also expressive. After familiarizing yourself with the basics of streams, it’s time to dive into Intermediate Operations. These operations allow you to transform and filter data in a way that keeps your code clean and readable.

But why should we care about intermediate operations? Well, they pave the way for building complex data processing pipelines, allowing you to apply multiple transformations seamlessly.

They’re like the building blocks of your data processing workflow, enabling you to compose various operations without altering the original data.
