Java 8 Convert a Stream to List

A Java 8 example to show you how to convert a Stream to a List via Collectors.toList

package com.mkyong.java8;
import java.util.List;
import java.util.stream.Collectors;
import java.util.stream.Stream;
public class Java8Example1 {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Stream<String> language = Stream.of("java", "python", "node");
        //Convert a Stream to List
        List<String> result = language.collect(Collectors.toList());
        result.forEach(System.out::println);

output

java
python
node

Yet another example, filter a number 3 and convert it to a List.

package com.mkyong.java8;
import java.util.List;
import java.util.stream.Collectors;
import java.util.stream.Stream;
public class Java8Example2 {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Stream<Integer> number = Stream.of(1, 2, 3, 4, 5);
        List<Integer> result2 = number.filter(x -> x != 3).collect(Collectors.toList());
        result2.forEach(x -> System.out.println(x));

output
