| contents | With billions of smartphones in use globally, the daily time spent on these devices contributes significantly to overall electricity consumption. Given this scale, even minor reductions in smartphone power use could result in substantial energy savings. This study explores the impact of Lambda functions on resource consumption in mobile programming. While Lambda functions are known for enhancing code readability and conciseness, their use does not add to the functional capabilities of a programming language. Our research investigates the implications of using Lambda functions in terms of battery utilization, memory usage, and execution time compared to equivalent code structures without Lambda functions. Our findings reveal that Lambda functions impose a considerable resource overhead on mobile devices without offering additional functionalities. |
