Java 8 Notes Part 1

Part 1 of the document covers key features introduced in Java 8, including Lambda Expressions, Functional Interfaces, and the Stream API. Lambda expressions allow for a concise representation of anonymous functions, while functional interfaces are defined as having exactly one abstract method. An example of a functional interface, 'Calculator', is provided to illustrate its use with a lambda expression for addition.

Part 1 - Java 8 Introduction, Lambda Expressions & Functional Interfaces

Introduction
Java 8 introduced Lambda Expressions, Functional Interfaces, Stream API, Method
References, Optional, Date & Time API, Default Methods, Parallel Streams and
CompletableFuture.

Lambda Expressions
Lambda expressions provide a concise way to represent anonymous functions.

Runnable r = () -> [Link]("Hello");


(x) -> x * x
(a,b) -> a + b

Functional Interfaces
A functional interface contains exactly one abstract method.

@FunctionalInterface
interface Calculator {
int add(int a,int b);
}
Calculator c = (a,b) -> a+b;
