Functional Programming in Java, Second Edition: p.135 code for "primes" using a self-modifying filter
This is no particular interest but here is some code that uses the “execute around” pattern to build a timer to time the “primes generator”, as well as a second primes generator that uses a self-modifying stream filter, a closure that accumulates all the primes found so far so as to perform divisibility testing, which is evidently faster than the “try to divide by every x between 2 and sqrt(n)”.
