Question
When should a Java developer choose Streams Basics deliberately?
- Choose Streams Basics mainly when you want to postpone validation and fix problems manually later.
- Choose Streams Basics whenever you want the code to look more advanced, even if the design gets less clear.
- Use streams when declarative transformation, filtering, and collection make the logic more readable than manual loops.
- Choose Streams Basics only to avoid modeling domain rules explicitly in Java code.
Hint
Think about the production scenario where the choice genuinely improves the code.
Answer and rationale
Correct answer: C. Use streams when declarative transformation, filtering, and collection make the logic more readable than manual loops.
Use streams when declarative transformation, filtering, and collection make the logic more readable than manual loops. Interviewers often ask this to see whether you can connect the concept to real design decisions.
