Abstract
Along with java.io.File and java.io.RandomAccessFile, Java’s classic I/O infrastructure provides streams for performing I/O operations. A stream is an ordered sequence of bytes of an arbitrary length. Bytes flow over an output stream from an application to a destination and flow over an input stream from a source to an application.
