A Supplier interface is a pre-defined interface that represents the supplier of results. It is instantiated using lambda expression or method reference or default constructor. The functional method of a Supplier interface is the get() method. This interface belongs to java.util.function package.Syntax@FunctionalInterface public interface SupplierIn the below program, we can use the Supplier interface in a lambda expression. ... Read More

A Predicate interface defined in java.util.function package. It represents a boolean-valued function with one argument. It is kind of a functional interface whose functional method is the test(). BiPredicate interface is similar to the Predicate interface with two arguments. It can be used as an assignment target for a lambda expression.Syntax for Predicate@FunctionalInterface public interface PredicateExampleimport java.util.*; import java.util.function.*; ...

Comparator interface can be used to order the objects of user-defined classes. It is capable of comparing two objects of two different classes. We can sort a list of objects where we can't modify the object’s source code to implement Comparable interface. A lambda expression can't be executed on its own and used to implement methods that ...

The Function interface is a pre-defined functional interface that can be used as an assignment target for a lambda expression or method reference. It takes a single parameter and returns result by calling the apply() method. While the BiFunction interface is also a pre-defined functional interface that takes two parameters and returns a result. It is similar ... Read More

A Consumer interface is a predefined functional interface that can be used when creating lambda expressions or method references. This interface represents an operation that accepts a single input parameter and doesn't return anything. It contains only one method named accept(). The BiConsumer interface is similar to a Consumer interface and accepts two input parameters and doesn’t return ... Read More

Method reference is a simplified form of the lambda expression. It can specify a class name or instance name followed by the method name. The "::" symbol can separate a method name from the name of an object or class.An instance method reference refers to an instance method of any class. In the below example, we can implement an ...

A Callable interface defined in java.util.concurrent package. An object of Callable returns a computed result done by a thread in contrast to a Runnable interface that can only run the thread. The Callable object returns Future object that provides methods to monitor the progress of a task executed by a thread. An object of the Future used ... Read More

An interface having only one abstract method is known as a functional interface and also named as Single Abstract Method Interfaces (SAM Interfaces). One abstract method means that either a default method or an abstract method whose implementation is available by default is allowed. The instances of SAM interfaces are java.lang.Runnable, java.awt.event.ActionListener, java.util.Comparator ... Read More

Method reference is a simplified form of a lambda expression that can execute one method. It can be described using "::" symbol. A reference to the instance method of a particular object refers to a non-static method that is bound to a receiver.SyntaxObjectReference::instanceMethodNameExample - 1import java.util.*; public class InstanceMethodReferenceTest1 { ...

A lambda expression is similar to a method that has an argument, body, and return type. It can also be called an anonymous function (method without a name). We need to follow some rules while using formal parameters in a lambda expression.If the abstract method of functional interface is a zero-argument method, then the ... Read More
