BiPredicate
public interface BiPredicate
| java.util.function.BiPredicate<T, U> |
Represents a predicate (boolean-valued function) of two arguments. This is the two-arity specialization of Predicate.
This is a functional interface whose functional method is test(java.lang.Object, java.lang.Object).

default BiPredicate<T, U> | and(BiPredicate<? super T, ? super U> other) Returns a composed predicate that represents a short-circuiting logical AND of this predicate and another. |

default BiPredicate<T, U> | or(BiPredicate<? super T, ? super U> other) Returns a composed predicate that represents a short-circuiting logical OR of this predicate and another. |

Public methods
and
public BiPredicate<T, U> and (BiPredicate<? super T, ? super U> other)
Returns a composed predicate that represents a short-circuiting logical AND of this predicate and another. When evaluating the composed predicate, if this predicate is false, then the other predicate is not evaluated.
Any exceptions thrown during evaluation of either predicate are relayed to the caller; if evaluation of this predicate throws an exception, the other predicate will not be evaluated.
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
other | BiPredicate: a predicate that will be logically-ANDed with this predicate |
| Returns | |
|---|---|
BiPredicate<T, U> | a composed predicate that represents the short-circuiting logical AND of this predicate and the other predicate |
| Throws | |
|---|---|
NullPointerException | if other is null |
negate
public BiPredicate<T, U> negate ()
Returns a predicate that represents the logical negation of this predicate.
| Returns | |
|---|---|
BiPredicate<T, U> | a predicate that represents the logical negation of this predicate |
or
public BiPredicate<T, U> or (BiPredicate<? super T, ? super U> other)
Returns a composed predicate that represents a short-circuiting logical OR of this predicate and another. When evaluating the composed predicate, if this predicate is true, then the other predicate is not evaluated.
Any exceptions thrown during evaluation of either predicate are relayed to the caller; if evaluation of this predicate throws an exception, the other predicate will not be evaluated.
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
other | BiPredicate: a predicate that will be logically-ORed with this predicate |
| Returns | |
|---|---|
BiPredicate<T, U> | a composed predicate that represents the short-circuiting logical OR of this predicate and the other predicate |
| Throws | |
|---|---|
NullPointerException | if other is null |
test
public abstract boolean test (T t, U u)
Evaluates this predicate on the given arguments.
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
t | T: the first input argument |
u | U: the second input argument |
| Returns | |
|---|---|
boolean | true if the input arguments match the predicate, otherwise false |
