Mastering lambdas: Java programming in a multicore world: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Mastering lambdas: Java programming in a multicore world" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

This book describes how the lambda-related features of Java SE 8 will enable Java to meet the challenges of next-generation parallel hardware architectures. It explains how to write lambdas, and how to use them in streams and in collection processing, providing code examples throughout. Readers will learn how to use lambda expressions to take full advantage of performance improvements provided by todays multicore hardware. Topics include: why lambdas were needed, and how they will change Java programming; syntax of lambda expressions; basic operation of streams and pipelines; using collectors and reduction to end pipelines; creating streams; spliterators, the fork/join framework, and exceptions; examining stream performance with microbenchmarking; and API evolution using default methods. --

Foreword

J ava SE 8 may well represent the largest change ever to the Java language and libraries. Since youre reading a book called Mastering Lambdas, you probably already know that the biggest new feature is the addition of lambda expressions. Depending on your perspective, this evolution began in 2009 (when Project Lambda was launched), or 2006 (when several proposals were made for adding closures to Java), or 1997 (when inner classes were added), or 1941 (when Alonzo Church published his foundational work on the theory of computing, from which lambda expressions get their name).

However long it took to get here, its about time! While it may initially appear that lambda expressions are just another language feature, in reality, they will change the way you think about programming, offering a powerful new tool for applying abstraction to the programming challenges you face every day. Of course, Java already gives us powerful tools for abstraction, such as inheritance and generics, but these are largely about abstracting over data. Lambda expressions complement these by giving us a better tool for abstracting over behavior.

In embracing lambda expressions, Java has taken a mild turn towards functional programming. While it might seem that object-oriented programming and functional programming are competing disciplines, they offer us complementary tools for managing program complexity. And, as hardware parallelism continues to increase, the building blocks of functional programmingimmutable values and pure functionsbecome even more effective tools for managing that complexity.
