BinaryOperator
@FunctionalInterface interface BinaryOperator<T : Any!> : BiFunction<T, T, T>
Represents an operation upon two operands of the same type, producing a result of the same type as the operands. This is a specialization of BiFunction
for the case where the operands and the result are all of the same type.
This is a functional interface whose functional method is apply(java.lang.Object,java.lang.Object)
.
Summary
Public methods |
open static BinaryOperator<T>! |
Returns a BinaryOperator which returns the greater of two elements according to the specified Comparator .
|

Inherited functions |
From class BiFunction
BiFunction<T, U, V>! |
andThen(after: Function<in R, out V>!)
Returns a composed function that first applies this function to its input, and then applies the after function to the result. If evaluation of either function throws an exception, it is relayed to the caller of the composed function.
|
R |
apply(t: T, u: U)
Applies this function to the given arguments.
