## Interface IOFunction<T,R>

- Type Parameters:
    `T` - the type of the input to the operations.
    `R` - the return type of the operations.
  Functional Interface:
    This is a functional interface and can therefore be used as the assignment target for a lambda expression or method reference.

      @FunctionalInterface
      public interface IOFunction<T,R>

  Like `Function` but throws `IOException`.
  Since:
    2.7

    - #### apply

          R apply(T t)
           throws IOException

      Applies this function to the given argument.

        `t` - the function argument
      Returns:
        the function result

      Parameters:
        `before` - the function to apply before this function is applied
