Overview

Lambda was added to Java in version 8. Similar to Python lambda is a short block of code that is a function do not have a name. Like functions they can take in arguments and returns a value. Unlike Pythons lambda Java has its own way of using lambda. Like in Python lambda functions are typically used in higher order functions or functions that take in another function as an argument.
