Lambda is an anonymous function is known as a lambda function. This function can have any number of parameters but, can have just one statement.
|
A <code>lambda</code> expression is an 'anonymous' function, the differnce between a normal defined function using the keyword `def`` is the syntax and ussage.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Example:
|
The syntax is:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```lambda[parameters]: [expresion]```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Examples:**
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* A lambda function add 10 with any argument passed.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```py
|
||||||
|
x = lambda a: a + 10
|
||||||
|
print(x(10))
|
||||||
```
|
```
|
||||||
1 a = lambda x,y : x+y
|
|
||||||
2 print(a(5, 6))
|
* An addition function
|
||||||
Output: 11
|
|
||||||
|
```py
|
||||||
|
addition = lambda x, y: x + y
|
||||||
|
print(addition(10, 20))
|
||||||
```
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* Squaring function
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```py
|
||||||
|
square = lambda x : x ** 2
|
||||||
|
print(square(5))
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
Generally it is considered a bad practice under PEP 8 to asign a lambda expresion, they are meant to be used as parameters and inside of other defined functions.
