Modifier and Type	Method and Description
`static <T> Predicate<T>`	`alwaysFalse()` Returns a predicate which always returns false

`static <A,B> Predicate<A>`	`compose(Function<A,? extends B> function, Predicate<B> predicate)` Returns a predicate which takes the input, passes it through the given function, and then obtains a result from the delegate predicate.
