In this article, we would like to show you how to find the first element in Stream that matches the criteria in Java 8.

  • filter() - to specify the criteria (in our case if the element starts with "B"),
  • findFirst() - to return the first value that matches the criteria,
  • orElse() - to return null if none of the elements matches.

Practical example:
