T - the type of the operands and result of the operator@FunctionalInterface public interface BinaryOperator<T> extends BiFunction<T,T,T>
BiFunction for the case where the operands and the result are all of
the same type.
This is a functional interface
whose functional method is BiFunction.apply(Object, Object).
BiFunction,
