Partitions a collection into groups based on a characteristics of that group. Partitions are embodied in a map, whose keys are the value of that characteristic, and the values are the partition of elements whose characteristic evaluate to that key.

partition

V> Map<K,Collection<V>> partition(Collection<V> collection,
 Function<? super V,? extends K> keyer)

Partitions a collection into groups based on a characteristics of that group. Partitions are embodied in a map, whose keys are the value of that characteristic, and the values are the partition of elements whose characteristic evaluate to that key.
