doesnt really shortcut it, right?

[Alowaniak]

what do you mean with "doesn't really shortcut it"?
It's a sequence so it only does the mapping until it gets the first non null

[ursus]

really? Ill investigate, because im pretty sure normal list.mapNotNull does all the items and skips the null ones

[Alowaniak]

Yes, that's the case with a normal list or w/e.
But that's why @Pavlo Liapota had asSequence().
Because they are a "lazy collection" like java's Stream
