lambda function in python code example

Example 1: 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 2: lambda function in python

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

These two functions do the same thing

>>> lambda x: x
