Java 8 Streams Java Java API

java.util.stream.IntStream

Method:

IntStream limit(long maxSize)

import java.util.stream.IntStream;

public class LimitExample {

    public static void main(String... args) {
        IntStream stream = IntStream.iterate(0, i -> i + 1)
                                    .limit(5);
        stream.forEach(System.out::println);
    }
}
