Java 11 – Not Predicate

Java 11 introduced new method to Predicate interface as not() to negate an existing predicate similar to negate method.

Consider the following program −

Java11NotPredicate.java

import java.util.Arrays;
import java.util.List;
import java.util.function.Predicate;
import java.util.stream.Collectors;

public class Java11NotPredicate {

	 public static void main(String[] args) {		
	      List<String> tutorialsList = Arrays.asList("Ela", "", " ", "Java", "\n", "\t");
          // 1. Filter non blank values using predicate
	      List<String> tutorials = tutorialsList.stream()
	         .filter(Predicate.not(String::isBlank))
	         .collect(Collectors.toList());
	      
          // 2. Iterate filter values
	      tutorials.forEach(tutorial -> System.out.println(tutorial));
	 }
}

Output
