Programming with Lambdas & Streams in Java 8

Java developers who enjoy experimenting with new features and APIs are invited to join this hack session. After a brief introduction to lambdas and streams we will try to solve a couple of common problems using lambdas and streams, both of which are new features in Java 8. The idea is that you bring your computer, try solving the problems, and share your experience (epiphanies and frustations alike) with the group. It is a chance to familiarize yourself with the new features and gain first insights in the new Java 8 features.

This session is not meant as a regular workshop with a major presentation part and some guided hand-on labs. Instead the idea is to experiment, share the ideas, and discuss the insights.
