Java 8 Streams - IntStream.skip Examples

[Last Updated: Nov 5, 2025]

Interface:

java.util.stream.IntStream

Method:

IntStream skip(long n)

This stateful intermediate operation returns a stream consisting of the remaining elements of this stream after discarding the first n elements of the stream. If this stream contains fewer than n elements then an empty stream will be returned.

Examples

package com.logicbig.example.intstream;

import java.util.stream.IntStream;

public class SkipExample {

    public static void main(String... args) {
        System.out.println("-- skip --");
        IntStream intStream = IntStream.range(1, 15);
        intStream.skip(10)
                 .forEach(System.out::println);

        System.out.println("-- parallel skip --");
        IntStream intStream2 = IntStream.range(1, 15);
        intStream2.parallel()
                  .skip(10)
                  .forEach(System.out::println);
    }
}

Output

-- skip --
11
12

-- parallel skip --
