Lambdas

Java 

> Lambdas were adopted in Java 8

> Defined as an expression of an instance of a single-method anonymous class

C#

> Anonymous methods were introduced in C# 2.0

> Lambda expression in C# 3.0

> Defined as a function that can be passed as an argument or returned as the value of function calls
