Binary operator
This lesson explores the Binary operator functional interface in Java.
We'll cover the following
BinaryOperator<T>
BinaryOperator<T>
is a functional interface that inherits from BiFunction<T, T, T>
interface. The BinaryOperator<T>
interface takes only one parameter as compared to BiFunction<T, T, T>
, which takes three parameters(two operands type and one result type).
Both the input objects and the result are of the same type in BinaryOperator<T>
.
Below are the few interfaces that come under the BinaryOperator<T>
category.
BinaryOperator<T> |
Represents an operation upon two operands of the same type, producing a result of the same type as the operands (reference type) | T apply(T t, T u) |
DoubleBinaryOperator |
Accepts two double-value operands and produces a double-value result | double applyAsDouble(double left, double right) |
IntBinaryOperator |
Accepts two int-value operands and produces an int-value result | int applyAsInt(int left, int right) |
LongBinaryOperator |
Accepts two long-value operands and produces a long-value result. | applyAsLong(long left, long right) |
