# LongUnaryOperator

public interface **LongUnaryOperator** Represents an operation on a single `long`-valued operand that produces
a `long`-valued result. This is the primitive type specialization of
`https://developers.google.com/j2objc/javadoc/jre/reference/java/util/function/UnaryOperator.html` for `long`.

This is a [functional interface](https://developers.google.com/j2objc/javadoc/jre/reference/java/util/function/package-summary)
whose functional method is `https://developers.google.com/j2objc/javadoc/jre/reference/java/util/function/LongUnaryOperator.html#applyAsLong(long)`.

## Public Methods

#### public [LongUnaryOperator](https://developers.google.com/j2objc/javadoc/jre/reference/java/util/function/LongUnaryOperator.html)
**andThen**
([LongUnaryOperator](https://developers.google.com/j2objc/javadoc/jre/reference/java/util/function/LongUnaryOperator.html) after)

Returns a composed operator that first applies this operator to
its input, and then applies the `after` operator to the result.
If evaluation of either operator throws an exception, it is relayed to
the caller of the composed operator.

##### Parameters

| after | the operator to apply after this operator is applied |
|---|---|

##### Returns

- a composed operator that first applies this operator and then applies the `after` operator

##### Throws

| [NullPointerException](https://developers.google.com/j2objc/javadoc/jre/reference/java/lang/NullPointerException.html) | if after is null |
|---|---|

##### See Also

- `https://developers.google.com/j2objc/javadoc/jre/reference/java/util/function/LongUnaryOperator.html#compose(java.util.function.LongUnaryOperator)`

#### public abstract long
**applyAsLong**
(long operand)

Applies this operator to the given operand.

##### Parameters

| operand | the operand |
|---|---|

##### Returns

- the operator result

#### public [LongUnaryOperator](https://developers.google.com/j2objc/javadoc/jre/reference/java/util/function/LongUnaryOperator.html)
**compose**
([LongUnaryOperator](https://developers.google.com/j2objc/javadoc/jre/reference/java/util/function/LongUnaryOperator.html) before)

Returns a composed operator that first applies the `before`
operator to its input, and then applies this operator to the result.
If evaluation of either operator throws an exception, it is relayed to
the caller of the composed operator.

##### Parameters

| before | the operator to apply before this operator is applied |
|---|---|

##### Returns

- a composed operator that first applies the `before` operator and then applies this operator

##### Throws

| [NullPointerException](https://developers.google.com/j2objc/javadoc/jre/reference/java/lang/NullPointerException.html) | if before is null |
|---|---|

#### public static [LongUnaryOperator](https://developers.google.com/j2objc/javadoc/jre/reference/java/util/function/LongUnaryOperator.html)
**identity**
()

Returns a unary operator that always returns its input argument.

##### Returns

- a unary operator that always returns its input argument
