The Definitive Guide to Lambda Expressions

Mastering Lambdas: Java Programming in a Multicore World describes how the lambda-related features of Java SE 8 will enable Java to meet the challenges of next-generation parallel hardware architectures. The bookexplains how to write lambdas, and how to use them in streams and in collection processing, providing code examples throughout. You'll learn how to use lambda expressions to take full advantage of performanceimprovements provided by today's multicore hardware. This Oracle Press book covers:

Why lambdas were needed, and how they will change JavaprogrammingSyntax of lambda expressionsThe basic operation of streams and pipelinesUsing collectors and reduction to end pipelinesCreating streamsSpliterators, the fork/join framework, and exceptionsExamining stream performance with microbenchmarkingAPI evolution using default methods

This comprehensive guide shows you how to master the most important changes to Java since it was first released. Generics and the greatly expanded collection libraries have tremendously increased the power of Java 5 and Java 6. But they have also confused many developers who haven't known how to take advantage of these new features. "Java Generics and Collections" covers everything from the most basic uses of generics to the strangest corner cases. It teaches you everything you need to know about the collections libraries, so you'll always know which collection is appropriate for any given task, and how to use it. Topics covered include: Fundamentals of generics: type parameters and generic methods; Other new features: boxing and unboxing, foreach loops, varargs; Subtyping and wildcards; Evolution not revolution: generic libraries with legacy clients and generic clients with legacy libraries; Generics and reflection; Design patterns for generics; Sets, Queues, Lists, Maps, and their implementations; Concurrent programming and thread safety with collections; ane Performance implications of different collections.Generics and the new collection libraries they inspired take Java to a new level. If you want to take your software development practice to a new level, this book is essential reading.

Java Generics and Collections has been the go-to guide to generics for more than a decade. This second edition covers Java 21, providing a clear guide to generics from their most common uses to the strangest corner cases, giving you everything you need to know to use and write generic APIs effectively. It covers the collections library thoroughly, so you'll always know how and when to use each collection for any given task. And it explains stream processing, so you'll know which model to use and how they interoperate to get the best out of the platform library.This indispensable guide covers:Fundamentals of generics: type parameters and generic methodsSubtyping and wildcardsGenerics and reflectionDesign patterns for genericsSets, queues, lists, maps, and their implementationsConcurrent programming and thread safety with collectionsPerformance of different collection implementationsBest practices for using and extending the Java collections frameworkDesign philosophy and comparison with other collections libraries
