functional data structure - What and why java

Comment

Functional data structures are immutable and persistent in nature.
1. Immutable – Object cannot be modified once created/instantiated.
2. Persistent – A persistent data structure is a data structure that always preserves the previous version of itself when it is modified.
Such data structures are effectively immutable.

So, If a data structure satisfies the above two condition i.e. a data structure is immutable and persistent, it is a functional data structure, unfortunately, we do not have a functional data structure in Java so far. 
However, with the help of libraries like Cyclops and Vavr, we can still use functional data structure in our programs.
