Overall, the implementation looks clean and professional.
I appreciate how clear the method structure is and the added comments explaining each step of the calculation.

Specific Feedback:

  • Good use of parameter validation for side and slant. Preventing invalid values ensures the geometry stays logical.
  • The variable names (base, lateral, totalArea) make the formula easy to follow and self-documenting.
  • Suggest renaming slantslantHeight for extra clarity since it describes a physical dimension.
  • You could add a brief comment near the lateral calculation line to remind readers that the factor of 2 comes from the 4 triangular faces (each = side × slant / 2).

Summary:
Clear, consistent, and well-commented update — the code is mathematically correct and formatted neatly. Great improvement from the initial version!

public static double surfaceAreaPyramid(final double side, final double slant) {
// Validation: both side and slant height must be positive
if (side <= 0) {

Good validation step. It’s always smart to prevent invalid geometric dimensions early.

}

// Base area (square) = side^2
double base = side * side;

Base area calculation is correct and easy to follow. Consider adding a quick comment that this represents the square base.
