                                          Predicate<T> target)

Creates a predicate that checks that all elements of an Iterable matches a given target predicate.

Type Parameters:

T - type of objects in the iterable and that the target operates upon

Parameters:

target - predicate used to check each element in the iterable

Returns:

the constructed predicate

anyMatch

                                          Predicate<T> target)

Creates a predicate that checks that any element in an Iterable matches a given target predicate.

Type Parameters:

T - type of objects in the iterable and that the target operates upon

Parameters:

target - predicate used to check each element in the iterable

Returns:

the constructed predicate

caseInsensitiveMatch

@Nonnull
public static Predicate<CharSequence> caseInsensitiveMatch(@Nonnull
                                                   String target)
