After updating Gradle version to 3.1, the error below is thrown on running the application:
Failed to find byte code for java/util/function/Function
java.io.IOException: Failed to find byte code for java/util/function/Function at com.android.build.gradle.internal.incremental.AsmUtils.lambda$static$0(AsmUtils.java:89) at com.android.build.gradle.internal.incremental.AsmUtils.loadClass(AsmUtils.java:307)
May anybody help me to fix this?

This looks like a compiler issue. Did you try restarting your Android studio? If yes, then try
Build-> Clean Project
Build-> Make Project
If the issue still persists, try to clear cache by File > Invalidate Caches & Restart...
If everything fails, try disabling Instant Run.
