Lambda in Java

A Lambda Expression is an anonymous function that can be passed as a parameter or stored as a variable, represented as (parameters) -> expression. They are used for more concise code, enable functional programming in Java, and are useful in various contexts like collections and event handling. Additionally, Lambdas help eliminate boilerplate code associated with anonymous inner classes.

A Lambda Expression is essentially an anonymous function
— a function without a name — that can be passed as a
parameter or stored as a variable.
(parameters) -> expression
(parameters) -> { statements }

(int a, int b) -> a + b


This expression takes two integers and returns their sum.
🔹 2. Why Use Lambdas?
 More concise code.
 Enables functional programming in Java.
 Useful in collections, streams, event handling, etc.
 Eliminates boilerplate code (like anonymous inner
classes).
