了解Lambda表达式

我不太确定我是否了解Oracle Java教程中的Lambda表达式教程。令我感到困惑的主要是lambda的Index参数。ds.print(index ->{...}编译器如何知道什至是什么值索引？索引没有在程序的其他任何地方声明，所以Index参数甚至引用的是什么？编译器如何知道？

有问题的运动：

public class DataStructure {

    private final static int SIZE = 15;
    private int[] arrayOfInts = new int[SIZE];

    public DataStructure() {
        for (int i = 0; i < SIZE; i++) {
            arrayOfInts[i] = i;
        }
    }

    public int size() {
        return SIZE;
    }

    public int get(int index) {
        return arrayOfInts[index];
    }

    interface DataStructureIterator extends java.util.Iterator<Integer> { }

    private class EvenIterator implements DataStructureIterator {

        private int nextIndex = 0;

        public boolean hasNext() {
            return (nextIndex <= SIZE - 1);
        }

        public Integer next() {
            Integer retValue = Integer.valueOf(arrayOfInts[nextIndex]);
            nextIndex += 2;
            return retValue;
        }
    }

    public DataStructureIterator getEvenIterator() {
        return new EvenIterator();
    }

    public void printEven() {
        DataStructureIterator iterator = getEvenIterator();
        while (iterator.hasNext()) {

        System.out.println("print(DataStructureIterator) with "
                + "getEvenIterator");

                + "anonymous class, odd indicies");

                    public Integer next() {
                        int retValue = ds.get(nextIndex);
                        nextIndex += 2;
                        return retValue;
                    }
                }
        );

        System.out.println("print(Function) with lambda expressions");
        ds.print(index -> {
