# Lambda are anonymous functions in Python by using the keyword lambda
# Therefore they are not bound to a name
# Simple Lambda Function
a = lambda parameter: parameter + 40
#
print (a(2)) # Outputs 42
# Lambda Functions Inside Real Functions
def subtract_func(n) :
return lambda x: x - n
#
a = subtract_func(1) # Sets n to 1 for a
b = subtract_func(2) # Sets n to 2 for b
#
print(a(-4)) # Outputs -5 ( -5 = -4 - 1 )
print(b(-2)) # Outputs -4 ( -4 = -2 - 2 )
# Lambda Function with Multiple Parameters
f = lambda x, y : x + y
#
print( f(1,1) ) # Outputs 2 ( 1 + 1 )
# map() + lambda functions
a = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
b = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
#
r = map(lambda x,y : x+y, a,b) # map() will return an iterator
r_list = list(r) # listify r
print(r_list) # prints [2, 4, 6, 8, 10]
# filter() + lambda functions
# Program to filter out only the even items from a list
