java 8 lambda expression creating thread

Lambda expression is used to provide the implementation of functional interface.

Java Lambda Expression Syntax

(argument-list) -> {function-body}  

Where:
Argument-list: It can be empty or non-empty as well.
Arrow notation/lambda notation: It is used to link arguments-list and body of expression.
Function-body: It contains expressions and statements for lambda expression.

Example

package com.w3spoint;
 
public class LambdaExpressionExample {
	public static void main(String args[]){
	 //Thread Example without lambda  
         Runnable r1=new Runnable(){  
            public void run(){  
                System.out.println("Thread1 is running...");  
            }  
        };  
        Thread t1=new Thread(r1);  
        t1.start();  
        //Thread Example with lambda  
        Runnable r2=()->{  
                System.out.println("Thread2 is running...");  
        };  
        Thread t2=new Thread(r2);  
        t2.start();  
    }  
}

Output

Thread1 is running...
Thread2 is running...
