Java Lambda

Expressions:
Simplifying
Code with
Style!

YASITH WIMUKTHI
What are Lambda Expressions? 🤔
In simple terms, Lambda Expressions are
anonymous functions, i.e., functions
without names. They allow us to write
functional-style code by focusing on the
logic rather than boilerplate syntax.
Here's the basic syntax:
Why Use Lambda Expressions? 🤷‍♂️
Concise: Say goodbye to verbose
anonymous classes.👋
Readability: Your code looks cleaner
and more modern. 📜
Functional Programming: Enables
features like streams and parallel
operations.🌊
Anatomy of a Lambda Expression 🧩
Let’s break down the syntax:

Parameters: Variables passed to the


function. (a, b)
Arrow Token (->): Separates
parameters from the body.
Body: The function logic. { return a + b;
}
Let’s Code! Examples You’ll Love

1. Replace Anonymous Classes


Before Lambda: 😩

With Lambda: 😍
2. Single-Line Lambdas

3. Filter with Streams


4. Sort with Elegance
Before Lambda: 😩

With Lambda: 😍
5. Compute Like a Pro
Lambda Best Practices ✅
Keep it Simple: Use lambdas for
concise, small functions.
Avoid Overuse: If the lambda gets too
complex, consider refactoring into a
method.
Readability Matters: Always write
readable lambdas, even if it means a

few extra characters.
