#default-methods #horstmann-java8-for-really-impatient #java #java8
You can never make a default method that redefines one of the methods in the Object class. For example, you can’t define a default method for toString or equals, even though that might be attractive for interfaces such as List. As a consequence of the “classes win” rule, such a method could never win against Object.toString or Object.equals.

code to count words where length > 12 in traditional way:

int count = 0;
for (String w : words) {
  if (w.length() > 12) count++;
}
in Java 8 would look like this:

count = words.stream().filter(w -> w.length() > 12).count();

to parallelise search for words here:

you would change a method stream() to parallelStream()

Question
What does to stand for in this example?

for (i <- 0 to 2)
  print(greetStrings(i))
Answer
a method call (0).to(2)
if a method takes only one parameter, you can call it without a dot or parentheses.

Accessing an element of an array in Scala is simply a method call like any other. This principle is not restricted to arrays: any application of an object to some arguments in parentheses will be transformed to an apply() method call. Of course this will compile only if that type of object actually defines an apply method.

When an assignment is made to a variable to which parentheses and one or more arguments have been applied, the compiler will transform that into an invocation of an update method that takes the arguments in parentheses as well as the object to the right of the equals sign.
