But the above is just a simple example. Once you add a filter to a stream it basically hides all the implementation details from the user. You will be unaware of the data being manipulated in a stream. And also the same filter can be used with any stream (files, urls, various protocols etc.) without any changes to the underlying code. Also multiple filters can be chained together, so that the output of one can be the input of another. Well it may look like manipulating data in a variable is preferable to the above.
