Return # of players in a certain area

[Juggles]

Right now I am using 
 

getPlayers().getAll().size();

But this only works for the whole loaded map. 
I scoured through the API but cannot find a method to return the number of players within a certain area. 

I am looking for a method that can do something similar to this:  getPlayers().getAll(area).size();

Appreciate any help I can get

	public boolean checkforPlayers(Area area) {
        List<Player> playerss = players.getAll();
        for (Player p : playerss) {
            if (area.contains(p) && !p.getName().equals(myPlayer().getName())) {
                return true;
            }
        }
        return false;
    }

if you want it in one line I think this might work:

getPlayers().filter(player -> area.contains(player)).size();

Remember that NPC and players only get loaded when they are in range. (+-16 tiles)
This is different then gameobjects that get loaded together with the map chunks.

Thanks totally forgot about Lambda expression

I believe this would also work:

getPlayers().filter(new AreaFilter(area)).size();

If I'm going to do Lambda, I'll stay away from OSBot's filter and just use theirs:

public final int countPlayers(Area area) {
	return (int) players.getAll().stream().filter(area::contains).count();
}
