Example
// Java (verbose):
Collector<Person, StringJoiner, String> personNameCollector =
Collector.of(
() -> new StringJoiner(" | "), // supplier
(j, p) -> j.add(p.name.toUpperCase()), // accumulator
(j1, j2) -> j1.merge(j2), // combiner
StringJoiner::toString); // finisher
String names = persons
.stream()
.collect(personNameCollector);
System.out.println(names); // MAX | PETER | PAMELA | DAVID
// Java (concise)
String names = persons.stream().map(p -> p.name.toUpperCase()).collect(Collectors.joining(" | "));
// Kotlin:
val names = persons.map { it.name.toUpperCase() }.joinToString(" | ")
