Java has evolved over the years to support functional programming, which is a programming paradigm that emphasizes writing code in terms of functions. In Java, functional programming is made possible with the help of functional interfaces, which are interfaces that define a single abstract method. Functional interfaces can be implemented using lambda expressions or method…

Lambda expressions are one of the most significant additions to the Java programming language in recent years. They were introduced in Java 8 and are a way to write more concise and expressive code. Lambda expressions allow you to define and pass around blocks of code, known as functional interfaces, making it easier to write…
