> *Java SE 8 (JDK8) *introduced a fundamentally new way of programming 
> in Java with the introduction of Lambda expressions.
>
> Lambda provides a simple way to pass functionality as an argument to 
> another method, such as what action should be taken when someone 
> clicks a button, or how to sort a set of names. Lambda expressions 
> enable you to do this, to treat functionality as a method argument, or 
> code as data.
>
> You may have heard about Lambda expressions, and are curious what 
> impact it will have on you as a Java developer.
>
> This course is designed to answer your questions and more.
>
> Have you ever wondered what Lambda expressions are in Java?
> Have you ever wanted to write parallel code in Java without worrying 
> about threads and locking?
> Have you ever wanted to process collections of data without using loops?
> Have you ever wanted to do functional programming in Java?
>
> All of these questions will be answered in this practical hands-on 
> *MOOC*. This course introduces two major new changes to the Java 
> platform: Lambda expressions and the Stream API.
