Concatenate strings using Lambda expression in Java

Java Lambda Program: Exercise-10 with Solution

Write a Java program to implement a lambda expression to concatenate two strings.

Sample Solution:

Java Code:

import java.util.function.BiFunction;

public class Main {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        // Define the concatenate lambda expression
        BiFunction<String, String, String> concatenate = (str1, str2) -> str1 + str2;

        // Concatenate two strings using the lambda expression
        String string1 = "Good ";
        String string2 = "Morning!";
		System.out.println("Original strings: " + string1 + ", " +string2);
        String result = concatenate.apply(string1, string2);

        // Print the concatenated string
        System.out.println("\nConcatenated string: " + result);
    }
}

Sample Output:

Original strings: Good , Morning!

Concatenated string: Good Morning!

Explanation:

In the above exercise -

From the java.util.function package, we import the BiFunction functional interface.

In the main() method, we define a lambda expression using the BiFunction<String, String, String>. This functional interface represents a function that accepts two String arguments and produces a String result.

The lambda expression "concatenate" takes two strings str1 and str2 as input and concatenates them using the + operator.

After defining the lambda expression, we use it to concatenate two strings by calling the apply method on the lambda expression and passing the two strings as arguments. The result is stored in the result variable, which is a String.
