  27  * <em>Functional interfaces</em> provide typing for lambda methods. Each
  28  * functional interface provides a single non-defaulted method to which the
  29  * lambda method's parameter and return types are matched.
  30  *
  31  * <p>The interfaces in this package are all functional interfaces used with the
  32  * collections and streams frameworks. The operation identified by each
  33  * interface is generally applied to a collection or stream of objects.
  34  *
  35  * <p>All functional interface implementations are expected to:
  36  * <ul>
  37  * <li>When used for aggregate operations upon many elements it should not be
  38  * assumed that the operation will be called upon elements in any specific order.
  39  * </li>
