We might get ConcurrentModificationException if the iterator is not used properly. Java 8 has introduced forEach method in java.lang.Iterable interface so that while writing code we focus on business logic. The forEach method takes java.util.function.Consumer object as an argument, so it helps in having our business logic at a separa...
