== python lambda ==
what is the point of doing:
<lang Python>halve = lambda x: x // 2
double = lambda x: x*2
even = lambda x: not x % 2</lang>
instead of:
<lang Python>def halve(x):
return x//2
def double(x):
return x*2
def even(x):
return not x % 2</lang>
if a named function is needed, it doesn't seem to make much sense to use lambda to create it.
lambda is useful for cases where an unnamed function is preferred.--[[User:EMBee|eMBee]] 07:35, 5 January 2012 (UTC)
