Reading Time: 3 minutes Lambda Expressions get add-in Java 8. Java lambda expressions are Java’s first step into functional programming. Its main objective is to increase the expressive power of the language. The syntax of a basic lambda expression is: The expression use as the code body for the abstract method within the paired functional interface. lambda expressions exist outside of any object’s scope. This means they are callable anywhere in Continue Reading

Lambda Expressions: An Introduction in Java 8

September 16, 2020September 16, 2020Java, Tech BlogsJava 8, Lambda Expressions in Java

Reading Time: 2 minutes Lambda expressions were one of the new features that was introduced in Java 8. They help clean up verbose code by providing a concise and local way to reduce redundancy by keeping code short and self-explanatory. In addition to saving code, Java’s lambda expressions are important in functional programming. They allow developers to write in a functional style by acting as functions without belonging to Continue Reading

Functional Java: Understanding Pure Functions with JAVA

July 24, 2019Functional Programming, Java, Reactive ProgrammingFunctional java, Lambda Expressions in Java, pure functions, Reactive Programming, technology

Reading Time: 3 minutes Functional programming is a programming paradigm which is gaining its popularity day by day. It revolves around binding everything in pure mathematical functions style. It is is the process of building software by composing pure functions, avoiding shared state, mutable data, and side-effects. Functional programming is declarative rather than imperative, and application state flows through pure functions. We call it as a declarative type of Continue Reading

Reading Time: 3 minutes Java is based on OOPS concepts and abstraction is one of its feature. So by using interfaces in Java, we achieve abstraction. Like a class, an interface can have methods and variables, but the methods declared in an interface are by default abstract (method signature without body).

Rules while working with stream in Java 8

Reading Time: 3 minutes First, let’s have a basic understanding of stream. Then we will have a look at the side effects that can occur while working with streams. Streams represent a sequence of objects from a source, which supports aggregate operations. One thing to be notified while working with streams is that, aggregate operation (intermediate operations) are lazy evaluated i.e. they do not start processing the content of Continue Reading

Reading Time: < 1 minute The Functional Features of Java8 Java 8 was a major release in terms of language and APIs. The language includes several ideas from functional programming like behavior parameterization, passing lambda expression as methods, processing data with stream pipelines etc. The following presentation describes the functional programming add on in Java 8. We will be introducing the lambda expression, Functional Interfaces, Default methods and Stream API in Java Continue Reading
