They are nothing even remotely likely linq. Those functions return the resulting arrays. Linq expressions are not executed until enumerated.

This allows you to compose linq expressions without computing intermediate results.

Sounds like Java 8 Streams, then.

Streams bear a pretty strong resemblance to translated LINQ.
