Python Lambda Functions: The Ultimate Tool for Cleaner Code(Python Core in Action 10)
Explore Python's anonymous functions and functional programming. Learn how lambda, map, filter, and reduce simplify code and improve performance.
Welcome to the "Python Core in Action" Series
In the previous section, we explored the widely used "regular" functions in Python.
However, aside from regular functions, you might also encounter some "non-regular" ones in your code. These are often very short, just a single line, and have a cool name—lambda, also known as anonymous functions.
Anonymous functions are equally important in real-world applications. Using them correctly can make your code more concise and readable.
In this lesson, we continue our journey with Python functions by diving into the simple yet powerful anonymous functions.
