Functional Java – partial function application, the LOD and structure agnostic access

It’s been a while since I last wrote something about programming on my private blog and since a lot has been said about Java 8 lambdas, I did not feel to add a lot more. But I recently saw a colleague’s blog on Intel’s Inside Blue about Lambdas and why a functional programming style matters. That motivated me to write something again, and tackle this topic, putting an emphasis on a specific problem and how Lambdas helped me solve it.
