@GwtCompatible(emulated=true)
public final class Iterators
extends Object

This class contains static utility methods that operate on or return objects of type Iterator. Except as noted, each method has a corresponding Iterable-based method in the Iterables class.

Performance notes: Unless otherwise noted, all of the iterators produced in this class are lazy, which means that they only advance the backing iteration when absolutely necessary.

cycle

public static <T> Iterator<T> cycle(Iterable<T> iterable)
Returns an iterator that cycles indefinitely over the elements of iterable.

The returned iterator supports remove() if the provided iterator does. After remove() is called, subsequent cycles omit the removed element, which is no longer in iterable. The iterator's hasNext() method returns true until iterable is empty.

Warning: Typical uses of the resulting iterator may produce an infinite loop. You should use an explicit break or be certain that you will eventually remove all the elements.


cycle

public static <T> Iterator<T> cycle(T... elements)
Returns an iterator that cycles indefinitely over the provided elements.

The returned iterator supports remove() if the provided iterator does. After remove() is called, subsequent cycles omit the removed element, but elements does not change. The iterator's hasNext() method returns true until all of the original elements have been removed.

Warning: Typical uses of the resulting iterator may produce an infinite loop. You should use an explicit break or be certain that you will eventually remove all the elements.

concat

public static <T> Iterator<T> concat(Iterator<? extends Iterator<? extends T>> inputs)
Combines multiple iterators into a single iterator. The returned iterator iterates across the elements of each iterator in inputs. The input iterators are not polled until necessary.

Divides an iterator into unmodifiable sublists of the given size (the final list may be smaller). For example, partitioning an iterator containing [a, b, c, d, e] with a partition size of 3 yields [[a, b, c], [d, e]] -- an outer iterator containing two inner lists of three and two elements, all in the original order.

The returned lists implement RandomAccess.

Parameters:
iterator - the iterator to return a partitioned view of
size - the desired size of each partition (the last may be smaller)
Returns:
an iterator of immutable lists containing the elements of iterator divided into partitions

Divides an iterator into unmodifiable sublists of the given size, padding the final iterator with null values if necessary. For example, partitioning an iterator containing [a, b, c, d, e] with a partition size of 3 yields [[a, b, c], [d, e, null]] -- an outer iterator containing two inner lists of three elements each, all in the original order.

The returned lists implement RandomAccess.

Parameters:
iterator - the iterator to return a partitioned view of
size - the desired size of each partition
Returns:
an iterator of immutable lists containing the elements of iterator divided into partitions (the final iterable may have trailing null elements)

find

public static <T> T find(Iterator<T> iterator,
                         Predicate<? super T> predicate)
Returns the first element in iterator that satisfies the given predicate; use this method only when such an element is known to exist. If no such element is found, the iterator will be left exhausted: its hasNext() method will return false. If it is possible that no element will match, use #tryFind) or #find(Iterator, Predicate, T) instead.

Throws:
NoSuchElementException - if no element in iterator matches the given predicate

find

public static <T> T find(Iterator<T> iterator,
                         Predicate<? super T> predicate,

                         T defaultValue)
Returns the first element in iterator that satisfies the given predicate. If no such element is found, defaultValue will be returned from this method and the iterator will be left exhausted: its hasNext() method will return false. Note that this can usually be handled more naturally using tryFind(iterator, predicate).or(defaultValue).

Since:
7.0

tryFind

public static <T> Optional<T> tryFind(Iterator<T> iterator,
                                      Predicate<? super T> predicate)
Returns an Optional containing the first element in iterator that satisfies the given predicate, if such an element exists. If no such element is found, an empty Optional will be returned from this method and the the iterator will be left exhausted: its hasNext() method will return false.

Returns the index in iterator of the first element that satisfies the provided predicate, or -1 if the Iterator has no such elements.

More formally, returns the lowest index i such that predicate.apply(Iterators.get(iterator, i)) returns true, or -1 if there is no such index.

If -1 is returned, the iterator will be left exhausted: its hasNext() method will return false. Otherwise, the iterator will be set to the element which satisfies the predicate.

Since:

Throws:
IndexOutOfBoundsException - if position is negative
Since:
4.0

Returns:
the number of elements skipped
Since:
3.0

limit

public static <T> Iterator<T> limit(Iterator<T> iterator,
                                    int limitSize)
Creates an iterator returning the first limitSize elements of the given iterator. If the original iterator does not contain that many elements, the returned iterator will have the same behavior as the original iterator. The returned iterator supports remove() if the original iterator does.

Parameters:
iterator - the iterator to limit
limitSize - the maximum number of elements in the returned iterator
Throws:
IllegalArgumentException - if limitSize is negative
Since:
3.0

consumingIterator

public static <T> Iterator<T> consumingIterator(Iterator<T> iterator)
Returns a view of the supplied iterator that removes each element from the supplied iterator as it is returned.

The provided iterator must support Iterator.remove() or else the returned iterator will fail on the first call to next.

Parameters:
iterator - the iterator to remove and return elements from
Returns:
an iterator that removes and returns elements from the supplied iterator
Since:
2.0

forArray

public static <T> UnmodifiableIterator<T> forArray(T... array)
Returns an iterator containing the elements of array in order. The returned iterator is a view of the array; subsequent changes to the array will be reflected in the iterator.

Note: It is often preferable to represent your data using a collection type, for example using Arrays.asList(Object[]), making this method unnecessary.

The Iterable equivalent of this method is either Arrays.asList(Object[]), ImmutableList.copyOf(Object[])}, or ImmutableList.of().


singletonIterator

public static <T> UnmodifiableIterator<T> singletonIterator(@Nullable
                                                            T value)
Returns an iterator containing only value.

The Iterable equivalent of this method is Collections.singleton(T).


forEnumeration

public static <T> UnmodifiableIterator<T> forEnumeration(Enumeration<T> enumeration)

This method has no equivalent in Iterables because viewing an Enumeration as an Iterable is impossible. However, the contents can be copied into a collection using Collections.list(java.util.Enumeration).


asEnumeration

public static <T> Enumeration<T> asEnumeration(Iterator<T> iterator)
Adapts an Iterator to the Enumeration interface.

The Iterable equivalent of this method is either Collections.enumeration(java.util.Collection) (if you have a Collection), or Iterators.asEnumeration(collection.iterator()).


peekingIterator

public static <T> PeekingIterator<T> peekingIterator(Iterator<? extends T> iterator)
Returns a PeekingIterator backed by the given iterator.

Calls to the peek method with no intervening calls to next do not affect the iteration, and hence return the same object each time. A subsequent call to next is guaranteed to return the same object again. For example:

   PeekingIterator<String> peekingIterator =
       Iterators.peekingIterator(Iterators.forArray("a", "b"));
   String a1 = peekingIterator.peek(); // returns "a"
   String a2 = peekingIterator.peek(); // also returns "a"
   String a3 = peekingIterator.next(); // also returns "a"
Any structural changes to the underlying iteration (aside from those performed by the iterator's own PeekingIterator.remove() method) will leave the iterator in an undefined state.

The returned iterator does not support removal after peeking, as explained by PeekingIterator.remove().

Note: If the given iterator is already a PeekingIterator, it might be returned to the caller, although this is neither guaranteed to occur nor required to be consistent. For example, this method might choose to pass through recognized implementations of PeekingIterator when the behavior of the implementation is known to meet the contract guaranteed by this method.

There is no Iterable equivalent to this method, so use this method to wrap each individual iterator as it is generated.

Parameters:
iterator - the backing iterator. The PeekingIterator assumes ownership of this iterator, so users should cease making direct calls to it after calling this method.
Returns:
a peeking iterator backed by that iterator. Apart from the additional PeekingIterator.peek() method, this iterator behaves exactly the same as iterator.

Returns an iterator over the merged contents of all given iterators, traversing every element of the input iterators. Equivalent entries will not be de-duplicated.

Callers must ensure that the source iterators are in non-descending order as this method does not sort its input.

For any equivalent elements across all iterators, it is undefined which element is returned first.
