Q: Python supports the creation of anonymous functions at runtime, using a construct called __________
Solution: Python supports the creation of anonymous functions (i.e. functions that are not bound to a name) at runtime, using a construct called lambda. Lambda functions are restricted to a single expression. They can be used wherever normal functions can be used.
Q: What will be the output of the following Python code? y = 6 z = lambda x: x * y print z(8)
Solution: The lambda keyword creates an anonymous function. The x is a parameter, that is passed to the lambda function. The parameter is followed by a colon character. The code next to the colon is the expression that is executed, when the lambda function is called. The lambda function is assigned to the z variable. The lambda function is executed. The number 8 is passed to the anonymous function and it returns 48 as the result. Note that z is not a name for this function. It is only a variable to which the anonymous function was assigned.
Q: What will be the output of the following Python code? lamb = lambda x: x ** 3 print(lamb(5))
Solution: None.
Q: Does Lambda contains return statements?
Solution: lambda definition does not include a return statement. it always contains an expression which is returned. Also note that we can put a lambda definition anywhere a function is expected. We don’t have to assign it to a variable at all.
Q: Lambda is a statement.
Solution: lambda is an anonymous function in Python. Hence this statement is false.
Q: Lambda contains block of statements.
Solution: None.
Q: What will be the output of the following Python code? def f(x, y, z): return x + y + z f(2, 30, 400)
Solution: None.
Q: What will be the output of the following Python code? L = [lambda x: x ** 2, lambda x: x ** 3, lambda x: x ** 4] for f in L: print(f(3))
Solution: None.
Q: What will be the output of the following Python code? min = (lambda x, y: x if x < y else y) min(101*99, 102*98)
Solution: None.
