038/**
039 * An expanded {@code Iterable} API, providing functionality similar to Java 8's powerful <a href=
040 * "https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/util/stream/package-summary.html#package.description"
041 * >streams library</a> in a slightly different way.
042 *
043 * <p>The following types of methods are provided:
044 *
045 * <ul>
046 *   <li>chaining methods which return a new {@code FluentIterable} based in some way on the
047 *       contents of the current one (for example {@link #transform})
048 *   <li>element extraction methods which facilitate the retrieval of certain elements (for example
049 *       {@link #last})
050 *   <li>query methods which answer questions about the {@code FluentIterable}'s contents (for
051 *       example {@link #anyMatch})
052 *   <li>conversion methods which copy the {@code FluentIterable}'s contents into a new collection
053 *       or array (for example {@link #toList})
054 * </ul>
055 *
056 * <p>Several lesser-used features are currently available only as static methods on the {@link
057 * Iterables} class.
058 *
059 * <p><a id="streams"></a>
060 *
061 * <h3>Comparison to streams</h3>
062 *
063 * <p>Starting with Java 8, the core Java class libraries provide a new "Streams" library (in {@code
064 * java.util.stream}), which is similar to {@code FluentIterable} but generally more powerful. Key
065 * differences include:
066 *
067 * <ul>
068 *   <li>A stream is <i>single-use</i>; it becomes invalid as soon as any "terminal operation" such
069 *       as {@code findFirst()} or {@code iterator()} is invoked. (Even though {@code Stream}
070 *       contains all the right method <i>signatures</i> to implement {@link Iterable}, it does not
071 *       actually do so, to avoid implying repeat-iterability.) {@code FluentIterable}, on the other
072 *       hand, is multiple-use, and does implement {@link Iterable}.
073 *   <li>Streams offer many features not found here, including {@code min/max}, {@code distinct},
074 *       {@code reduce}, {@code sorted}, the very powerful {@code collect}, and built-in support for
075 *       parallelizing stream operations.
076 *   <li>{@code FluentIterable} contains several features not available on {@code Stream}, which are
077 *       noted in the method descriptions below.
078 *   <li>Streams include primitive-specialized variants such as {@code IntStream}, the use of which
079 *       is strongly recommended.
080 *   <li>Streams are standard Java, not requiring a third-party dependency (but do render your code
081 *       incompatible with Java 7 and earlier).
082 * </ul>
083 *
084 * <h3>Example</h3>
085 *
086 * <p>Here is an example that accepts a list from a database call, filters it based on a predicate,
087 * transforms it by invoking {@code toString()} on each element, and returns the first 10 elements
088 * as a {@code List}:
089 *
090 * <pre>{@code
091 * ImmutableList<String> results =
092 *     FluentIterable.from(database.getClientList())
093 *         .filter(Client::isActiveInLastMonth)
094 *         .transform(Object::toString)
095 *         .limit(10)
096 *         .toList();
097 * }</pre>
098 *
099 * The approximate stream equivalent is:
100 *
101 * <pre>{@code
102 * List<String> results =
103 *     database.getClientList()
104 *         .stream()
105 *         .filter(Client::isActiveInLastMonth)
106 *         .map(Object::toString)
107 *         .limit(10)
108 *         .collect(Collectors.toList());
109 * }</pre>
