Imagine writing Java code that reads like the problem statement, code that’s highly expressive, concise, easy to read and modify, and has reduced complexity. With the functional programming capabilities in Java, that’s not a fantasy. This book will guide you from the familiar imperative style through the practical aspects of functional programming, using plenty of examples. Apply the techniques you learn to turn highly complex imperative code into elegant and easy-to-understand functional-style code. Updated to the latest version of Java, this edition has four new chapters on error handling, refactoring to functional style, transforming data, and idioms of functional programming.
