lambda function in python 3 code example

Example 1: lambda function in python

Lamda is just one line anonymous function
Useful when writing function inside function
it can take multiple arguments but computes only one expression

Syntax:
   x = lambda arguments : expression

Example 2: lambda python

even = lambda a: True if a % 2 == 0 else False
even(6) ## True
even(9) ## False

Example 3: python3 lambda

>>> sum = lambda x, y : x + y
>>> sum(3,4)
7

Example 4: lambda function in python

Lamda is just one line anonymous function
Useful when writing function inside function
it can take multiple arguments but computes only one expression

Syntax:
   x = lambda arguments : expression

Example 5: lambda function in python

>>> def identity(x):
...     return x

These two functions do the same thing

>>> lambda x: x
