4.2.2 Lambda Expressions

Lambda expressions define small anonymous functions in a single line.
They are commonly used for short, simple operations.


What Is a Lambda Expression?

A lambda expression:

  • Has no function name
  • Contains a single expression
  • Returns the result automatically

It is useful when a full function definition would be unnecessary.


Common Use Cases

  • Simple transformations
  • Short-lived helper functions
  • Use with functions that expect callable arguments

📌 Note:
Use lambda expressions for clarity, not complexity.
