  - flatCollect
```
<V> ImmutableCollection<V> flatCollect(Function<? super T,? extends java.lang.Iterable<V>> function)
```
    Description copied from interface: RichIterable
    flatCollect is a special case of RichIterable.collect(Function). With collect, when the Function returns a collection, the result is a collection of collections. flatCollect outputs a single "flattened" collection instead. This method is commonly called flatMap.
    Consider the following example where we have a Person class, and each Person has a list of Address objects. Take the following Function:
```
 Function<Person, List<Address>> addressFunction = new Function<Person, List<Address>>() {
     public List<Address> valueOf(Person person) {
         return person.getAddresses();
     }
 };
 MutableList<Person> people = ...;
 
```
    Using collect returns a collection of collections of addresses.
```
 MutableList<List<Address>> addresses = people.collect(addressFunction);
 
```
    Using flatCollect returns a single flattened list of addresses.
```
 MutableList<Address> addresses = people.flatCollect(addressFunction);
 
```
    Specified by:

    For each element of the iterable, the function is evaluated and the results of these evaluations are collected into a new multimap, where the transformed value is the key and the original values are added to the same (or similar) species of collection as the source iterable.
```
e.g.
 return people.groupBy(new Function<Person, String>()
 {
     public String value(Person person)
     {
         return person.getFirstName() + " " + person.getLastName();
     }

    Description copied from interface: RichIterable
    
    Applies an aggregate procedure over the iterable grouping results into a Map based on the specific groupBy function.

```
    Description copied from interface: RichIterable
    
    Applies an aggregate function over the iterable grouping results into a map based on the specific groupBy function.
