Java program to check if a number is a perfect square using lambda expression

Java Lambda Program: Exercise-18 with Solution

Write a Java program to implement a lambda expression to check if a given number is a perfect square.

Note: A perfect square is an element of algebraic structure that is equal to the square of another element.

Sample Solution:

Java Code:

import java.util.function.Predicate;

public class Main {
  public static void main(String[] args) {
    // Define the perfect square check lambda expression
    Predicate < Integer > isPerfectSquare = n -> {
      int sqrt = (int) Math.sqrt(n);
      return sqrt * sqrt == n;
    };

    // Test the lambda expression with some numbers
    int N = 36;
    boolean result1 = isPerfectSquare.test(N);
    System.out.println(N + " is a perfect square? " + result1);

    N = 26;
    boolean result2 = isPerfectSquare.test(N);
    System.out.println(N + " is a perfect square? " + result2);

    N = 10000;
    boolean result3 = isPerfectSquare.test(N);
    System.out.println(N + " is a perfect square? " + result3);
  }
}

Sample Output:

36 is a perfect square? true
26 is a perfect square? false
10000 is a perfect square? true

Explanation:

In the above exercise,

  • Import the Predicate functional interface.
  • In the main method, we define the lambda expression isPerfectSquare, which takes an integer N.
  • The lambda expression checks if the square of the square root of n is equal to n. If it is, then N is a perfect square.
  • We test the lambda expression by calling the test method with different numbers.
  • Finally, we print the results to the console.

Java: Tips of the Day

How do I remove repeated elements from ArrayList?

If you don't want duplicates in a Collection, you should consider why you're using a Collection that allows duplicates. The easiest way to remove repeated elements is to add the contents to a Set (which will not allow duplicates) and then add the Set back to the ArrayList:

Set<String> set = new HashSet<>(yourList);
yourList.clear();
yourList.addAll(set);

Of course, this destroys the ordering of the elements in the ArrayList.
