Why do I get the value of the default method and not the overridden one?

Question

interface MyInterface {
    default int someMethod() {
        return 0;
    }

    int anotherMethod();
}

class Test implements MyInterface {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Test q = new Test();
        q.run();
    }

    @Override
    public int anotherMethod() {
        return 1;
    }
    
    void run() {
        MyInterface a = () -> someMethod();
        System.out.println(a.anotherMethod());
    }
}

The execution result will be 0, although I expected 1. I don't understand why the result of the overridden method is not returned, but the result of the default method is returned.

Becouse you used another implementation with lambda, where implementation of another method is "some method". You can create interfaces with lambda. On this case you do

MyInterface a = new Test(); System.out.println(a.anotherMethod());

or :

    MyInterface a = () -> 1;
    System.out.println(a.anotherMethod());
