"""Lambda Expressions
@see: https://docs.python.org/3/tutorial/controlflow.html#lambda-expressions
Small anonymous functions can be created with the lambda keyword. Lambda functions can be used
wherever function objects are required. They are syntactically restricted to a single expression.
Semantically, they are just syntactic sugar for a normal function definition. Like nested function
definitions, lambda functions can reference variables from the containing scope.
"""
def test_lambda_expressions():
"""Lambda Expressions"""
# This function returns the sum of its two arguments: lambda a, b: a+b
# Like nested function definitions, lambda functions can reference variables from the
# containing scope.
def make_increment_function(delta):
"""This example uses a lambda expression to return a function"""
return lambda number: number + delta
increment_function = make_increment_function(42)
assert increment_function(0) == 42
assert increment_function(1) == 43
assert increment_function(2) == 44
# Another use of lambda is to pass a small function as an argument.
pairs = [(1, 'one'), (2, 'two'), (3, 'three'), (4, 'four')]
# Sort pairs by text key.
pairs.sort(key=lambda pair: pair[1])
assert pairs == [(4, 'four'), (1, 'one'), (3, 'three'), (2, 'two')]
