As you can see, there's a lot of looping in this code. First, the * getModelsAfter2000UsingFor method takes a list of cars as its parameter. It extracts or filters * out cars made after the year 2000, putting them into a new list named carsSortedByYear. Next, it * sorts that list in ascending order by year-of-make. Finally, it loops through the list * carsSortedByYear to get the model names and returns them in a list. * *

This short example demonstrates what I call the effect of statements. While * functions and methods in general can be used as expressions, the {@link Collections} sort method * doesn't return a result. Because it is used as a statement, it mutates the list given as * argument. Both of the for loops also mutate lists as they iterate. Being statements, that's just * how these elements work.
