Quick question. Suppose I have a function total (List list) and I have a MyObject class that have a String and an int displayed below and I want to compare two different object Strings in my total method. If they are the same, add the value on both of them. Otherwise, do nothing.
For example data is {[Johanna, 200], [Jack, 205], [Johanna, 100], [Jack, 50]};
The output should look like {[Johanna, 300], [Jack, 255]};
public static class MyObject {
int value;
String name;
public MyObject(String nm, int val)
{
name = nm;
value = val;
}
}
public void total(List<MyObject> list) {
List<MyObject> newList = new ArrayList<MyObject>();
Collections.sort(list);
Iterator<Order> ItrL = list.iterator();
int index = 0;
while(ItrL.hasNext())
{
MyObject compare = ItrL.next();
Iterator<MyObject> ItrR = list.listIterator(index);
index++;
while (cmp.name.equals(ItrR.next().name)))
newList.add(new MyObject(cmp.name, cmp.value + ItrR.value));
}
}
You can do summing and comparisons in parallel with no need to sort first using streams.
List<MyObject> newList = Arrays.asList(
new MyObject("Johanna", 200),
new MyObject("Jack", 205),
new MyObject("Johanna", 100),
new MyObject("Jack", 50)
);
Map<String,Integer> map =
newList.stream().parallel()
.collect(Collectors.groupingBy(mo -> mo.name,
Collectors.summingInt(mo -> mo.value)));
System.out.println("map = " + map);
You can reduce from n^2
to n*(n/2)
by using
for(int i = 0 ...
for(int j = i + 1 ...
There is no method that is "most optimal" as it depends on how big the data is. The problem seems suitable for map-reduce, but if you have like only 4 elements, then the overhead cost doesn't justify a real map reduce algorithm.
So anyway, here's one alternative that is pre-Java 8 (list doesn't need to be sorted first):
public static Map<String, Integer> total(List<MyObject> list) {
Map<String, Integer> result = new HashMap<String, Integer>();
for (MyObject myObject : list) {
Integer prevValue = result.get(myObject.name);
if (prevValue == null) {
result.put(myObject.name, myObject.value);
} else {
result.put(myObject.name, myObject.value + prevValue);
}
}
return result;
}
