What are reactive streams operators?

Can you explain what reactive streams operators are?

Reactive streams operators are functions that allow you to manipulate and transform data streams in a reactive programming model.

What are some common operators used in reactive streams?

Common operators include map, filter, merge, and flatMap, each serving different purposes for data transformation.

How do these operators work in practice?

For example, the map operator transforms each item in a stream by applying a function, while filter allows only items that meet a condition.

Can you give me an example of using the flatMap operator?

Sure! The flatMap operator can be used to flatten a stream of collections into a single stream of items, making it easier to process.
