# Recap

Level up and lessons learned

Congratulations on reaching the end of this guide! By now, you should have a solid understanding of how to use results in your Java applications effectively. Here's a brief recap of what you've learned:

* **Getting Started:** You learned how to integrate result objects into your codebase and instantiate new ones.
* **Basic Usage:** You explored foundational operations like checking statuses, unwrapping values, and executing conditional actions based on result status, enabling you to respond dynamically to success and failure scenarios.
* **Advanced Usage:** You delved into more sophisticated techniques like screening results to transform successes and failures based on conditions, and leveraging mapping and flat-mapping methods to compose behaviors in a functional style.

For more details on the Result API, you can read the [Javadoc reference documentation](https://javadoc.io/doc/com.leakyabstractions/result-api/).

{% hint style="success" %}
The full source code for the examples is [available on GitHub](https://github.com/LeakyAbstractions/result-docs/tree/main/example/src/test/java/com/example).
{% endhint %}

Next, we'll introduce additional resources where you can further enhance your understanding and skills. Let's continue expanding your knowledge!

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://result.leakyabstractions.com/docs/recap.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
