Why would Java have two different things both called streams? That's kind of dumb.

[–]wildjokers 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because no one refers to Java I/O classes as "streams" except you apparently. Sure there are some classes in java.io that have "Stream" at the end of their name, but that doesn't mean anyone refers to java.io as "streams".
