Verify Hashing.sha256() generated hash
I have this code created using Google Guava: How I can verify the generated values is a properly generated hash?

Dynamic return type based on input argument type
I’m trying to write a small function that takes two lists and sorts one based on the elements of the other. So something like: would result in a sorted list [E, C, A, D, B].

How to do it in the simplest way? The method below does not work well: when the fields from both objects are null, the comparison is alw…

Stream mapping multiple types
How can I convert this code to the one that uses streams? one line, if possible: Answer Well, IMO “in one line” is not a great point to use Stream because they came at a cost, but you can do something like this: return ImmutableList.of( houseConstructor.newInstance( 5, Houses.all() .entrySet() .st…
