lambda expressions in java -

[NQ 952]

Does anyone know why Java allows you to return a lambda expression for a method? Is this useful in some way? I am very confused, and reading the code is ugly as fuck.

Help me. I am not a programming god.

Basically if you're only going to use a method once, use a lambda expression. Although I've never come across them before, and I hate short-hand in programming
