Returns:

true if the input arguments match the predicate, otherwise false

and

default BiPredicate<T,U> and(BiPredicate<? super T,? super U> other)

other - a predicate that will be logically-ANDed with this predicate

NullPointerException - if other is null

negate

default BiPredicate<T,U> negate()

Returns a predicate that represents the logical negation of this predicate.

Returns:

a predicate that represents the logical negation of this predicate

or

default BiPredicate<T,U> or(BiPredicate<? super T,? super U> other)

Parameters:

other - a predicate that will be logically-ORed with this predicate

Returns:

a composed predicate that represents the short-circuiting logical OR of this predicate and the other predicate
