Is there a concise way to iterate over a stream with indices in Java 8?

Question

Is there a concise way to iterate over a stream whilst having access to the index in the stream?

String[] names = {\"Sam\",\"Pamela\", \"Dave\", \"Pascal\",          


        

Answer 1

Since guava 21, you can use

Streams.mapWithIndex()

Example (from official doc):

Streams.mapWithIndex(
    Stream.of("a", "b", "c"),
    (str, index) -> str + ":" + index)
) // will return Stream.of("a:0", "b:1", "c:2")
