how lambda function works in python code example

Example 1: lambda python

add = lambda a, b : a + b
add(3,6) ## 9

Example 2: 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 3: python lambda

multiply = lambda x,y: x * y
multiply(21, 2) #42
#_____________
def myfunc(n):
  return lambda a : a * n

mydoubler = myfunc(2)
print(mydoubler(11)) #22

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 functions python

lambda argument(s): expression

Example 6: lambda function in python

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

These two functions do the same thing

>>> lambda x: x
