How to flatten a 2D array into a sorted one-dimensional array in Java

Answer 1

import java.util.Arrays;

public class Flatten2DArrayIntoASorted1DArray_Java {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        int[][] array2d = {
            {4, 5, 3},
            {30, 20},
            {10},
            {1, 2, 6, 7, 8},
        };

        int[] arr = Arrays.stream(array2d)
                          .flatMapToInt(Arrays::stream)
                          .sorted()
                          .toArray();

        System.out.println(Arrays.toString(arr).replaceAll("[\\[\\]]", ""));
    }
}
