There are numerous questions asking whether there is a Java equivalent for LINQ. But most of them are incorrectly specifying that there is nothing.

Answer 1

This library provides a full LINQ API: https://github.com/nicholas22/jpropel-light

// select names starting with j, using LINQ-style statements
new String[] { "james", "john", "john", "eddie" }.where(startsWith("j")).distinct().all(println());
