flatMapVSmap

直接看例子

        List<String> list = Lists.newArrayList();
        list.add("hello world");
        list.add("hello java");
        List<String[]> collect = list.stream().map(x -> x.split(" ")).collect(Collectors.toList());
        System.out.println("collect = " + JSONObject.toJSONString(collect));
        List<String> collect1 = list.stream().flatMap(x -> Arrays.stream(x.split(" "))).collect(Collectors.toList());
        System.out.println("collect1 = " + JSONObject.toJSONString(collect1));

结果

collect = [["hello","world"],["hello","java"]]
collect1 = ["hello","world","hello","java"]

flatMap是将多个流合并成一个流来处理，map做的是1对1的映射，flatMap做的是1对多的映射
