+## Default Methods for Interfaces
+
+Java 8 enables us to add non-abstract method implementations to interfaces by utilizing the `default` keyword. This feature is also known as [virtual extension methods](http://stackoverflow.com/a/24102730).
+
+Here is our first example:
+
+```java
+interface Formula {
+ double calculate(int a);
+
+ default double sqrt(int a) {
+ return Math.sqrt(a);
+ }
+}
+```
+
+Besides the abstract method `calculate` the interface `Formula` also defines the default method `sqrt`. Concrete classes only have to implement the abstract method `calculate`. The default method `sqrt` can be used out of the box.
+
+```java
+Formula formula = new Formula() {
+ @Override
+ public double calculate(int a) {
+ return sqrt(a * 100);
+ }
+};
+
+formula.calculate(100); // 100.0
+formula.sqrt(16); // 4.0
+```
+
+The formula is implemented as an anonymous object. The code is quite verbose: 6 lines of code for such a simple calculation of `sqrt(a * 100)`. As we'll see in the next section, there's a much nicer way of implementing single method objects in Java 8.
+
+
+## Lambda expressions
+
+Let's start with a simple example of how to sort a list of strings in prior versions of Java:
+
+```java
+List names = Arrays.asList("peter", "anna", "mike", "xenia");
+
+Collections.sort(names, new Comparator() {
+ @Override
+ public int compare(String a, String b) {
+ return b.compareTo(a);
+ }
+});
+```
+
+The static utility method `Collections.sort` accepts a list and a comparator in order to sort the elements of the given list. You often find yourself creating anonymous comparators and pass them to the sort method.
+
+Instead of creating anonymous objects all day long, Java 8 comes with a much shorter syntax, **lambda expressions**:
+
+```java
+Collections.sort(names, (String a, String b) -> {
+ return b.compareTo(a);
+});
+```
+
+As you can see the code is much shorter and easier to read. But it gets even shorter:
+
+```java
+Collections.sort(names, (String a, String b) -> b.compareTo(a));
+```
+
+For one line method bodies you can skip both the braces `{}` and the `return` keyword. But it gets even shorter:
+
+```java
+names.sort((a, b) -> b.compareTo(a));
+```
+
+List now has a `sort` method. Also the java compiler is aware of the parameter types so you can skip them as well. Let's dive deeper into how lambda expressions can be used in the wild.
+
+
+## Functional Interfaces
+
+How does lambda expressions fit into Java's type system? Each lambda corresponds to a given type, specified by an interface. A so called _functional interface_ must contain **exactly one abstract method** declaration. Each lambda expression of that type will be matched to this abstract method. Since default methods are not abstract you're free to add default methods to your functional interface.
+
+We can use arbitrary interfaces as lambda expressions as long as the interface only contains one abstract method. To ensure that your interface meet the requirements, you should add the `@FunctionalInterface` annotation. The compiler is aware of this annotation and throws a compiler error as soon as you try to add a second abstract method declaration to the interface.
+
+Example:
+
+```java
+@FunctionalInterface
+interface Converter {
+ T convert(F from);
+}
+```
+
+```java
+Converter converter = (from) -> Integer.valueOf(from);
+Integer converted = converter.convert("123");
+System.out.println(converted); // 123
+```
+
+Keep in mind that the code is also valid if the `@FunctionalInterface` annotation would be omitted.
+
+
+## Method and Constructor References
+
+The above example code can be further simplified by utilizing static method references:
+
+```java
+Converter converter = Integer::valueOf;
+Integer converted = converter.convert("123");
+System.out.println(converted); // 123
+```
+
+Java 8 enables you to pass references of methods or constructors via the `::` keyword. The above example shows how to reference a static method. But we can also reference object methods:
+
+```java
+class Something {
+ String startsWith(String s) {
+ return String.valueOf(s.charAt(0));
+ }
+}
+```
+
+```java
+Something something = new Something();
+Converter converter = something::startsWith;
+String converted = converter.convert("Java");
+System.out.println(converted); // "J"
+```
+
+Let's see how the `::` keyword works for constructors. First we define an example class with different constructors:
+
+```java
+class Person {
+ String firstName;
+ String lastName;
+
+ Person() {}
+
+ Person(String firstName, String lastName) {
+ this.firstName = firstName;
+ this.lastName = lastName;
+ }
+}
+```
+
+Next we specify a person factory interface to be used for creating new persons:
+
+```java
+interface PersonFactory
{
+ P create(String firstName, String lastName);
+}
+```
+
+Instead of implementing the factory manually, we glue everything together via constructor references:
+
+```java
+PersonFactory personFactory = Person::new;
+Person person = personFactory.create("Peter", "Parker");
+```
+
+We create a reference to the Person constructor via `Person::new`. The Java compiler automatically chooses the right constructor by matching the signature of `PersonFactory.create`.
+
+## Lambda Scopes
+
+Accessing outer scope variables from lambda expressions is very similar to anonymous objects. You can access final variables from the local outer scope as well as instance fields and static variables.
+
+### Accessing local variables
+
+We can read final local variables from the outer scope of lambda expressions:
+
+```java
+final int num = 1;
+Converter stringConverter =
+ (from) -> String.valueOf(from + num);
+
+stringConverter.convert(2); // 3
+```
+
+But different to anonymous objects the variable `num` does not have to be declared final. This code is also valid:
+
+```java
+int num = 1;
+Converter stringConverter =
+ (from) -> String.valueOf(from + num);
+
+stringConverter.convert(2); // 3
+```
+
+However `num` must be implicitly final for the code to compile. The following code does **not** compile:
+
+```java
+int num = 1;
+Converter stringConverter =
+ (from) -> String.valueOf(from + num);
+num = 3;
+```
+
+Writing to `num` from within the lambda expression is also prohibited.
+
+### Accessing fields and static variables
+
+In contrast to local variables, we have both read and write access to instance fields and static variables from within lambda expressions. This behaviour is well known from anonymous objects.
+
+```java
+class Lambda4 {
+ static int outerStaticNum;
+ int outerNum;
+
+ void testScopes() {
+ Converter stringConverter1 = (from) -> {
+ outerNum = 23;
+ return String.valueOf(from);
+ };
+
+ Converter stringConverter2 = (from) -> {
+ outerStaticNum = 72;
+ return String.valueOf(from);
+ };
+ }
+}
+```
+
+### Accessing Default Interface Methods
+
+Remember the formula example from the first section? Interface `Formula` defines a default method `sqrt` which can be accessed from each formula instance including anonymous objects. This does not work with lambda expressions.
+
+Default methods **cannot** be accessed from within lambda expressions. The following code does not compile:
+
+```java
+Formula formula = (a) -> sqrt(a * 100);
+```
+
+
+## Built-in Functional Interfaces
+
+The JDK 1.8 API contains many built-in functional interfaces. Some of them are well known from older versions of Java like `Comparator` or `Runnable`. Those existing interfaces are extended to enable Lambda support via the `@FunctionalInterface` annotation.
+
+But the Java 8 API is also full of new functional interfaces to make your life easier. Some of those new interfaces are well known from the [Google Guava](https://code.google.com/p/guava-libraries/) library. Even if you're familiar with this library you should keep a close eye on how those interfaces are extended by some useful method extensions.
+
+### Predicates
+
+Predicates are boolean-valued functions of one argument. The interface contains various default methods for composing predicates to complex logical terms (and, or, negate)
+
+```java
+Predicate predicate = (s) -> s.length() > 0;
+
+predicate.test("foo"); // true
+predicate.negate().test("foo"); // false
+
+Predicate nonNull = Objects::nonNull;
+Predicate isNull = Objects::isNull;
+
+Predicate isEmpty = String::isEmpty;
+Predicate isNotEmpty = isEmpty.negate();
+```
+
+### Functions
+
+Functions accept one argument and produce a result. Default methods can be used to chain multiple functions together (compose, andThen).
+
+```java
+Function toInteger = Integer::valueOf;
+Function backToString = toInteger.andThen(String::valueOf);
+
+backToString.apply("123"); // "123"
+```
+
+### Suppliers
+
+Suppliers produce a result of a given generic type. Unlike Functions, Suppliers don't accept arguments.
+
+```java
+Supplier personSupplier = Person::new;
+personSupplier.get(); // new Person
+```
+
+### Consumers
+
+Consumers represent operations to be performed on a single input argument.
+
+```java
+Consumer greeter = (p) -> System.out.println("Hello, " + p.firstName);
+greeter.accept(new Person("Luke", "Skywalker"));
+```
+
+### Comparators
+
+Comparators are well known from older versions of Java. Java 8 adds various default methods to the interface.
+
+```java
+Comparator comparator = (p1, p2) -> p1.firstName.compareTo(p2.firstName);
+
+Person p1 = new Person("John", "Doe");
+Person p2 = new Person("Alice", "Wonderland");
+
+comparator.compare(p1, p2); // > 0
+comparator.reversed().compare(p1, p2); // < 0
+```
+
+## Optionals
+
+Optionals are not functional interfaces, but nifty utilities to prevent `NullPointerException`. It's an important concept for the next section, so let's have a quick look at how Optionals work.
+
+Optional is a simple container for a value which may be null or non-null. Think of a method which may return a non-null result but sometimes return nothing. Instead of returning `null` you return an `Optional` in Java 8.
+
+```java
+Optional optional = Optional.of("bam");
+
+optional.isPresent(); // true
+optional.get(); // "bam"
+optional.orElse("fallback"); // "bam"
+
+optional.ifPresent((s) -> System.out.println(s.charAt(0))); // "b"
+```
+
+## Streams
+
+A `java.util.Stream` represents a sequence of elements on which one or more operations can be performed. Stream operations are either _intermediate_ or _terminal_. While terminal operations return a result of a certain type, intermediate operations return the stream itself so you can chain multiple method calls in a row. Streams are created on a source, e.g. a `java.util.Collection` like lists or sets (maps are not supported). Stream operations can either be executed sequentially or parallely.
+
+> Streams are extremely powerful, so I wrote a separate [Java 8 Streams Tutorial](http://winterbe.com/posts/2014/07/31/java8-stream-tutorial-examples/). **You should also check out [Sequency](https://github.com/winterbe/sequency) as a similiar library for the web.**
+
+Let's first look how sequential streams work. First we create a sample source in form of a list of strings:
+
+```java
+List stringCollection = new ArrayList<>();
+stringCollection.add("ddd2");
+stringCollection.add("aaa2");
+stringCollection.add("bbb1");
+stringCollection.add("aaa1");
+stringCollection.add("bbb3");
+stringCollection.add("ccc");
+stringCollection.add("bbb2");
+stringCollection.add("ddd1");
+```
+
+Collections in Java 8 are extended so you can simply create streams either by calling `Collection.stream()` or `Collection.parallelStream()`. The following sections explain the most common stream operations.
+
+### Filter
+
+Filter accepts a predicate to filter all elements of the stream. This operation is _intermediate_ which enables us to call another stream operation (`forEach`) on the result. ForEach accepts a consumer to be executed for each element in the filtered stream. ForEach is a terminal operation. It's `void`, so we cannot call another stream operation.
+
+```java
+stringCollection
+ .stream()
+ .filter((s) -> s.startsWith("a"))
+ .forEach(System.out::println);
+
+// "aaa2", "aaa1"
+```
+
+### Sorted
+
+Sorted is an _intermediate_ operation which returns a sorted view of the stream. The elements are sorted in natural order unless you pass a custom `Comparator`.
+
+```java
+stringCollection
+ .stream()
+ .sorted()
+ .filter((s) -> s.startsWith("a"))
+ .forEach(System.out::println);
+
+// "aaa1", "aaa2"
+```
+
+Keep in mind that `sorted` does only create a sorted view of the stream without manipulating the ordering of the backed collection. The ordering of `stringCollection` is untouched:
+
+```java
+System.out.println(stringCollection);
+// ddd2, aaa2, bbb1, aaa1, bbb3, ccc, bbb2, ddd1
+```
+
+### Map
+
+The _intermediate_ operation `map` converts each element into another object via the given function. The following example converts each string into an upper-cased string. But you can also use `map` to transform each object into another type. The generic type of the resulting stream depends on the generic type of the function you pass to `map`.
+
+```java
+stringCollection
+ .stream()
+ .map(String::toUpperCase)
+ .sorted((a, b) -> b.compareTo(a))
+ .forEach(System.out::println);
+
+// "DDD2", "DDD1", "CCC", "BBB3", "BBB2", "AAA2", "AAA1"
+```
+
+### Match
+
+Various matching operations can be used to check whether a certain predicate matches the stream. All of those operations are _terminal_ and return a boolean result.
+
+```java
+boolean anyStartsWithA =
+ stringCollection
+ .stream()
+ .anyMatch((s) -> s.startsWith("a"));
+
+System.out.println(anyStartsWithA); // true
+
+boolean allStartsWithA =
+ stringCollection
+ .stream()
+ .allMatch((s) -> s.startsWith("a"));
+
+System.out.println(allStartsWithA); // false
+
+boolean noneStartsWithZ =
+ stringCollection
+ .stream()
+ .noneMatch((s) -> s.startsWith("z"));
+
+System.out.println(noneStartsWithZ); // true
+```
+
+#### Count
+
+Count is a _terminal_ operation returning the number of elements in the stream as a `long`.
+
+```java
+long startsWithB =
+ stringCollection
+ .stream()
+ .filter((s) -> s.startsWith("b"))
+ .count();
+
+System.out.println(startsWithB); // 3
+```
+
+
+### Reduce
+
+This _terminal_ operation performs a reduction on the elements of the stream with the given function. The result is an `Optional` holding the reduced value.
+
+```java
+Optional reduced =
+ stringCollection
+ .stream()
+ .sorted()
+ .reduce((s1, s2) -> s1 + "#" + s2);
+
+reduced.ifPresent(System.out::println);
+// "aaa1#aaa2#bbb1#bbb2#bbb3#ccc#ddd1#ddd2"
+```
+
+## Parallel Streams
+
+As mentioned above streams can be either sequential or parallel. Operations on sequential streams are performed on a single thread while operations on parallel streams are performed concurrently on multiple threads.
+
+The following example demonstrates how easy it is to increase the performance by using parallel streams.
+
+First we create a large list of unique elements:
+
+```java
+int max = 1000000;
+List values = new ArrayList<>(max);
+for (int i = 0; i < max; i++) {
+ UUID uuid = UUID.randomUUID();
+ values.add(uuid.toString());
+}
+```
+
+Now we measure the time it takes to sort a stream of this collection.
+
+### Sequential Sort
+
+```java
+long t0 = System.nanoTime();
+
+long count = values.stream().sorted().count();
+System.out.println(count);
+
+long t1 = System.nanoTime();
+
+long millis = TimeUnit.NANOSECONDS.toMillis(t1 - t0);
+System.out.println(String.format("sequential sort took: %d ms", millis));
+
+// sequential sort took: 899 ms
+```
+
+### Parallel Sort
+
+```java
+long t0 = System.nanoTime();
+
+long count = values.parallelStream().sorted().count();
+System.out.println(count);
+
+long t1 = System.nanoTime();
+
+long millis = TimeUnit.NANOSECONDS.toMillis(t1 - t0);
+System.out.println(String.format("parallel sort took: %d ms", millis));
+
+// parallel sort took: 472 ms
+```
+
+As you can see both code snippets are almost identical but the parallel sort is roughly 50% faster. All you have to do is change `stream()` to `parallelStream()`.
+
+## Maps
+
+As already mentioned maps do not directly support streams. There's no `stream()` method available on the `Map` interface itself, however you can create specialized streams upon the keys, values or entries of a map via `map.keySet().stream()`, `map.values().stream()` and `map.entrySet().stream()`.
+
+Furthermore maps support various new and useful methods for doing common tasks.
+
+```java
+Map map = new HashMap<>();
+
+for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
+ map.putIfAbsent(i, "val" + i);
+}
+
+map.forEach((id, val) -> System.out.println(val));
+```
+
+The above code should be self-explaining: `putIfAbsent` prevents us from writing additional if null checks; `forEach` accepts a consumer to perform operations for each value of the map.
+
+This example shows how to compute code on the map by utilizing functions:
+
+```java
+map.computeIfPresent(3, (num, val) -> val + num);
+map.get(3); // val33
+
+map.computeIfPresent(9, (num, val) -> null);
+map.containsKey(9); // false
+
+map.computeIfAbsent(23, num -> "val" + num);
+map.containsKey(23); // true
+
+map.computeIfAbsent(3, num -> "bam");
+map.get(3); // val33
+```
+
+Next, we learn how to remove entries for a given key, only if it's currently mapped to a given value:
+
+```java
+map.remove(3, "val3");
+map.get(3); // val33
+
+map.remove(3, "val33");
+map.get(3); // null
+```
+
+Another helpful method:
+
+```java
+map.getOrDefault(42, "not found"); // not found
+```
+
+Merging entries of a map is quite easy:
+
+```java
+map.merge(9, "val9", (value, newValue) -> value.concat(newValue));
+map.get(9); // val9
+
+map.merge(9, "concat", (value, newValue) -> value.concat(newValue));
+map.get(9); // val9concat
+```
+
+Merge either put the key/value into the map if no entry for the key exists, or the merging function will be called to change the existing value.
+
+
+## Date API
+
+Java 8 contains a brand new date and time API under the package `java.time`. The new Date API is comparable with the [Joda-Time](http://www.joda.org/joda-time/) library, however it's [not the same](http://blog.joda.org/2009/11/why-jsr-310-isn-joda-time_4941.html). The following examples cover the most important parts of this new API.
+
+### Clock
+
+Clock provides access to the current date and time. Clocks are aware of a timezone and may be used instead of `System.currentTimeMillis()` to retrieve the current time in milliseconds since Unix EPOCH. Such an instantaneous point on the time-line is also represented by the class `Instant`. Instants can be used to create legacy `java.util.Date` objects.
+
+```java
+Clock clock = Clock.systemDefaultZone();
+long millis = clock.millis();
+
+Instant instant = clock.instant();
+Date legacyDate = Date.from(instant); // legacy java.util.Date
+```
+
+### Timezones
+
+Timezones are represented by a `ZoneId`. They can easily be accessed via static factory methods. Timezones define the offsets which are important to convert between instants and local dates and times.
+
+```java
+System.out.println(ZoneId.getAvailableZoneIds());
+// prints all available timezone ids
+
+ZoneId zone1 = ZoneId.of("Europe/Berlin");
+ZoneId zone2 = ZoneId.of("Brazil/East");
+System.out.println(zone1.getRules());
+System.out.println(zone2.getRules());
+
+// ZoneRules[currentStandardOffset=+01:00]
+// ZoneRules[currentStandardOffset=-03:00]
+```
+
+### LocalTime
+
+LocalTime represents a time without a timezone, e.g. 10pm or 17:30:15. The following example creates two local times for the timezones defined above. Then we compare both times and calculate the difference in hours and minutes between both times.
+
+```java
+LocalTime now1 = LocalTime.now(zone1);
+LocalTime now2 = LocalTime.now(zone2);
+
+System.out.println(now1.isBefore(now2)); // false
+
+long hoursBetween = ChronoUnit.HOURS.between(now1, now2);
+long minutesBetween = ChronoUnit.MINUTES.between(now1, now2);
+
+System.out.println(hoursBetween); // -3
+System.out.println(minutesBetween); // -239
+```
+
+LocalTime comes with various factory methods to simplify the creation of new instances, including parsing of time strings.
+
+```java
+LocalTime late = LocalTime.of(23, 59, 59);
+System.out.println(late); // 23:59:59
+
+DateTimeFormatter germanFormatter =
+ DateTimeFormatter
+ .ofLocalizedTime(FormatStyle.SHORT)
+ .withLocale(Locale.GERMAN);
+
+LocalTime leetTime = LocalTime.parse("13:37", germanFormatter);
+System.out.println(leetTime); // 13:37
+```
+
+### LocalDate
+
+LocalDate represents a distinct date, e.g. 2014-03-11. It's immutable and works exactly analog to LocalTime. The sample demonstrates how to calculate new dates by adding or subtracting days, months or years. Keep in mind that each manipulation returns a new instance.
+
+```java
+LocalDate today = LocalDate.now();
+LocalDate tomorrow = today.plus(1, ChronoUnit.DAYS);
+LocalDate yesterday = tomorrow.minusDays(2);
+
+LocalDate independenceDay = LocalDate.of(2014, Month.JULY, 4);
+DayOfWeek dayOfWeek = independenceDay.getDayOfWeek();
+System.out.println(dayOfWeek); // FRIDAY
+```
+
+Parsing a LocalDate from a string is just as simple as parsing a LocalTime:
+
+```java
+DateTimeFormatter germanFormatter =
+ DateTimeFormatter
+ .ofLocalizedDate(FormatStyle.MEDIUM)
+ .withLocale(Locale.GERMAN);
+
+LocalDate xmas = LocalDate.parse("24.12.2014", germanFormatter);
+System.out.println(xmas); // 2014-12-24
+```
+
+### LocalDateTime
+
+LocalDateTime represents a date-time. It combines date and time as seen in the above sections into one instance. `LocalDateTime` is immutable and works similar to LocalTime and LocalDate. We can utilize methods for retrieving certain fields from a date-time:
+
+```java
+LocalDateTime sylvester = LocalDateTime.of(2014, Month.DECEMBER, 31, 23, 59, 59);
+
+DayOfWeek dayOfWeek = sylvester.getDayOfWeek();
+System.out.println(dayOfWeek); // WEDNESDAY
+
+Month month = sylvester.getMonth();
+System.out.println(month); // DECEMBER
+
+long minuteOfDay = sylvester.getLong(ChronoField.MINUTE_OF_DAY);
+System.out.println(minuteOfDay); // 1439
+```
+
+With the additional information of a timezone it can be converted to an instant. Instants can easily be converted to legacy dates of type `java.util.Date`.
+
+```java
+Instant instant = sylvester
+ .atZone(ZoneId.systemDefault())
+ .toInstant();
+
+Date legacyDate = Date.from(instant);
+System.out.println(legacyDate); // Wed Dec 31 23:59:59 CET 2014
+```
+
+Formatting date-times works just like formatting dates or times. Instead of using pre-defined formats we can create formatters from custom patterns.
+
+```java
+DateTimeFormatter formatter =
+ DateTimeFormatter
+ .ofPattern("MMM dd, yyyy - HH:mm");
+
+LocalDateTime parsed = LocalDateTime.parse("Nov 03, 2014 - 07:13", formatter);
+String string = formatter.format(parsed);
+System.out.println(string); // Nov 03, 2014 - 07:13
+```
+
+Unlike `java.text.NumberFormat` the new `DateTimeFormatter` is immutable and **thread-safe**.
+
+For details on the pattern syntax read [here](https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/time/format/DateTimeFormatter.html).
+
+
+## Annotations
+
+Annotations in Java 8 are repeatable. Let's dive directly into an example to figure that out.
+
+First, we define a wrapper annotation which holds an array of the actual annotations:
+
+```java
+@interface Hints {
+ Hint[] value();
+}
+
+@Repeatable(Hints.class)
+@interface Hint {
+ String value();
+}
+```
+Java 8 enables us to use multiple annotations of the same type by declaring the annotation `@Repeatable`.
+
+### Variant 1: Using the container annotation (old school)
+
+```java
+@Hints({@Hint("hint1"), @Hint("hint2")})
+class Person {}
+```
+
+### Variant 2: Using repeatable annotations (new school)
+
+```java
+@Hint("hint1")
+@Hint("hint2")
+class Person {}
+```
+
+Using variant 2 the java compiler implicitly sets up the `@Hints` annotation under the hood. That's important for reading annotation information via reflection.
+
+```java
+Hint hint = Person.class.getAnnotation(Hint.class);
+System.out.println(hint); // null
+
+Hints hints1 = Person.class.getAnnotation(Hints.class);
+System.out.println(hints1.value().length); // 2
+
+Hint[] hints2 = Person.class.getAnnotationsByType(Hint.class);
+System.out.println(hints2.length); // 2
+```
+
+Although we never declared the `@Hints` annotation on the `Person` class, it's still readable via `getAnnotation(Hints.class)`. However, the more convenient method is `getAnnotationsByType` which grants direct access to all annotated `@Hint` annotations.
+
+
+Furthermore the usage of annotations in Java 8 is expanded to two new targets:
+
+```java
+@Target({ElementType.TYPE_PARAMETER, ElementType.TYPE_USE})
+@interface MyAnnotation {}
+```
+

+
+My programming guide to Java 8 ends here. If you want to learn more about all the new classes and features of the JDK 8 API, check out my [JDK8 API Explorer](http://winterbe.com/projects/java8-explorer/). It helps you figuring out all the new classes and hidden gems of JDK 8, like `Arrays.parallelSort`, `StampedLock` and `CompletableFuture` - just to name a few.
