    \$\begingroup\$ @Therandomguy this requires something like interface x{void f(Object...a);} to be defined, and this lambda must be either stored in a variable of that interface type, or be passed to a method expecting that interface type, so I'm not really sure it counts for this challenge (even though usually java lambdas are allowed in codegolf challenges) \$\endgroup\$ Commented Apr 10, 2018 at 15:40

    \$\begingroup\$ @SamYonnou There is no difference with other lambdas, and as you mentioned, lambdas are fine. \$\endgroup\$ Commented Apr 10, 2018 at 16:15
  • \$\begingroup\$ @OlivierGrégoire I know that lambdas are allowed, my point was that compared to JavaScript for example, you need a lot more extra code to set it up, even if you are using something like REPL and avoid the need for a main class/method (the need for the interface to be defined is what distinguishes it from JavaScript) \$\endgroup\$ Commented Apr 11, 2018 at 18:09
