Kotlin with CoPilot: Create a List of 10 Numbers and Use Lambda to Find Even Numbers

In this example, we create a list of 10 integers in Kotlin and use a lambda function with the `filter` method to extract all even numbers from the list. This demonstrates how Kotlin’s concise syntax and higher-order functions make working with collections straightforward and expressive.

Code

fun main() {
  // Create a list of numbers from 1 to 10
  val numbers = (1..10).toList()

  // Use a lambda function to filter even numbers
  val evenNumbers = numbers.filter { it % 2 == 0 }

  // Print the list of even numbers
  println("Even numbers: $evenNumbers")
}

Key Points

• Kotlin's range operator `(1..10)` creates a sequence of numbers easily converted to a list.
• The `filter` function takes a lambda to select elements matching a condition—in this case, even numbers.
• The lambda expression `it % 2 == 0` checks if a number is divisible by 2 without a remainder.
• Kotlin's concise syntax allows writing collection operations in a readable and functional style.
