Q1. What is the difference between map and filter methods in streams ?

Ans. By using map , you can transform the object values. The map operation allows us to apply a function, that takes input parameter of one type, and returns something else.

Filter is used for filtering the data, it always returns the boolean value. If it returns true, then item is added to list else its filtered out (ignored)
