Loading collection data...
Collections are a way for you to organize kata so that you can create your own training routines. Every collection you create is public and automatically sharable with other warriors. After you have added a few kata to a collection you and others can train on the kata contained within the collection.
Get started now by creating a new collection.
This is the last kata in a series, and, as such, it makes you use all the things you learned in the series. Part of that is converting from a String into an IntStream and back again (a common task in Java streaming). There's no "essentially" about the programmer writing their own flatMap function; that's a specifically defined part of the kata.
Further, it's essentially a translation of another kata of the Dragon's Curve (http://www.codewars.com/kata/dragons-curve), but forces the use of Java streams. As such, it keeps to the contract of that kata as much as possible, which is also heavily reliant on String manipulation and String out.
Finally, a stylistic complaint is a "Suggestion", not an "Issue".
