Java/Default keyword
From charlesreid1
Default keyword helps to make Java/Interfaces work a little bit more like Java/Abstract Classes.
It's a new feature in Java 8 which allows an interface to provide an implementation. Described in Java 8 JLS-13.5.6. Interface Method Declarations which reads (in part)"Adding a default method, or changing a method from abstract to default, does not break compatibility with pre-existing binaries..."
"Default methods enable new functionality to be added to the interfaces of libraries and ensure binary compatibility with code written for older versions of those interfaces."
