Java_Lambda_Expressions

Java Lambda Expressions were introduced in Java 8 as a concise way to represent a block of code that takes parameters and returns a value. They can be implemented directly within methods and are similar to methods but do not require a name. The document includes examples demonstrating the use of lambda expressions with ArrayLists to print elements and filter even numbers.

Java Lambda Expressions

Lambda Expressions were added in Java 8.


A lambda expression is a short block of code which takes in parameters and
returns a
value. Lambda expressions are similar to methods, but they do not need a name
and they
can be implemented right in the body of a method.

import java.util.ArrayList;

public class Main {


public static void main(String[] args) {
ArrayList<Integer> numbers = new ArrayList<Integer>();
numbers.add(5);
numbers.add(9);
numbers.add(8);
numbers.add(1);
numbers.forEach( (n) -> { System.out.println(n); } );
}
}

import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.function.Consumer;

public class Main {


public static void main(String[] args) {
ArrayList<Integer> numbers = new ArrayList<Integer>();
numbers.add(5);
numbers.add(9);
numbers.add(8);
numbers.add(1);
Consumer<Integer> method = (n) -> { System.out.println

(n); };
numbers.forEach( method );
}
}

// A Java program to demonstrate simple lambda expressions


import java.util.ArrayList;
class Test {
public static void main(String args[])
{
// Creating an ArrayList with elements
// {1, 2, 3, 4}
ArrayList<Integer> arrL = new ArrayList<Integer>();
arrL.add(1);
arrL.add(2);
arrL.add(3);
arrL.add(4);

// Using lambda expression to print all elements


// of arrL
arrL.forEach(n -> System.out.println(n));

// Using lambda expression to print even elements


// of arrL
arrL.forEach(n -> {
if (n % 2 == 0)
System.out.println(n);
});
}
}
