How can I modify getCardsByRank function in order to return a Stream
with all the DISTINCT cards of that rank,
alphabetically SORTED ?

E.g. for a list that contains "2H", "2S", "TH" and the rank is '2'
the result should be a stream containing "2H" and "2S" in this order.

What I have tried:

I have tried this:

public static Stream<String> getCardsByRank(List<String> cards, char rank)
		{
			
			return cards.stream()
					.distinct()
                    .filter(s -> s.charAt(1) == rank)
                    .sorted();
		}

but it did not work...

"but it did not work."
Please do not say that; it means nothing to us. Show the actual data you are using, and the results you get.

It means that when I call the method, it displays an empty list .... sorry if I was not understood, I am new to programming :)

Solution 1

The card number is item 0 of the string not item 1.

Java

			return cards.stream()
					.distinct()
                    .filter(s -> s.charAt(0) == rank)
//                                        ^
                    .sorted();
