Python Lambda Functions??

[@deanbond007]

Thank you for all the videos you make they're really informative and make learning so much easier

[@b001]

Wow, thank you so much! So generous of you! I'm glad you enjoy my content!

[@thefoolishgmodcube2644]

Another thing is that lambda functions are faster to create and call compared to regular functions, so if you're obsessed with performance and your function only has a return statement you might as well make it a lambda function.

[@steveman1982]

But then again, python isn't really the right tool, if you want speed.

[@thefoolishgmodcube2644]

@@steveman1982 Yeah, more reason why you should opt for the fastest Python code, to make up for its slowness.

[@Inf1e]

if you obsessed with performance you really shouldn't use Python in first place

[@bamremix8235]

@@Inf1ewell tbh most of the popular machine learning and deep learning modules are easily accessible through python. So saying performance should be ignored while using python is stupid

[@ajflink]

​@@bamremix8235 Also, there are ways to make things faster and more efficient in Python if you know what you are doing. There are so many people that blame bad performance on Python yet have so much redundancy in their code that there is no surprise that things are bad performance wise or using a large amount of memory. The most infamous example that I can think of is ArcGIS Pro. If you know, you know. Also, since Python is not bound by strict typing, you can do crazy things not possible in most other languages.

its like you can read my mind, every time during the video i had a question, a second later you answered it. Well deserved sub 👍

[@jackkraus6948]

What I first used lambda functions for was when I created minesweeper in tkinter. The button components took a function parameter to call when pressed. Since in Minesweeper pressing an empty cell (no adjacent bombs, i.e. no number) reveals the cells around it, I wrote a recursive function that when given a row and column number revealed the cell value in that spot and called the function for the cells around it if the cell was empty. I used lambda to iteratively create functions using that function while passing in a set row and column. TL:DR you can use lambda to create a version of a defined function with filled in parameters

[@abhinavjoe]

My man not only explained me what lamda functions are, but also cleared my doubts about how the map() function works. Very informative and well put video. You're the best.

[@TheRealKitWalker]

I simply love the fact, that how concise this video is. Fantastic. I finally Understood the dreaded lambda function. 💪 Thanks so much dude.

[@robbertvandermeijden]

perfect video. Straight to the point and told me everything I needed to know. Thanks!

[@EricWAtchesVideos]

Thank you for the clear explanation!! I think that like so many of these language features, they solve a problem that doesn't exist. It's nice to have features, but I doubt that I will end up using this ever.

Amazing explanation, straight to the point and covered what I needed. Thank you!

[@darss10]

Great video! Very simple and clear explanation!! I am currently learning tkinter and I was told that you can use the lambda keyword when assigning a command to a button -> button_1 = tkinter.Button(command=lambda: button_click()). What's the difference between using lambda and just assigning the function without lambda -> button_1 = tkinter.Button(command=button_click)?? Thanks!

[@chrysos]

tkinter takes functions as arguments and calls them with their own arguments. For example if u use .bind("", func) on the main window ure function gets call on press of the Return key (Enter) with ure mouse possitions and more as argumets. this does not matter for ure button command, because it provides no arguments. U can use both of ure examples, but if u want to provide ure own arguments u need to use lambda

[@chrysos]

from tkinter import Tk, Button def func(*args): print(args) tk = Tk() tk.geometry("300x200") tk.bind("", func) button = Button( command=func) button.pack() tk.mainloop()

[@chrysos]

run this code, click the button, press Enter and look at the output

[@chrysos]

i am not a pro its just what i could understand myself

[@darss10]

@@chrysos WOW thanks! So, if I need to pass arguments into my button command, I use lambda, is that it?

[@handlemyece]

Thank you for the video!

[@gaberg21]

you explained it super well! will be sending this video to friends who dont get it

[@Liz4rdMan]

It is also usable when you only use a function once so you won't need to create a whole function for it and no one will use it.

[@FollowPathfinder]

Thank’s for the explanation. Lambda functions with map make things look so much easier, I wonder why is this even considered as intermediate Python knowledge?

[@fabricehategekimana5350]

I think it's because this concept belong to functional programming and go a bit deeper than what people thougth (It come from the lambda calculus). Generally people start with an imperative programming style, go to an object oriented programming style and maybe go to functional programming

[@veelone3663]

@@fabricehategekimana5350 huh ? im not even taking intermediate yet and lambda is being introduced rn. You're telling me it gets deeper than this? I'm fucked ..

why do u use brakets with ure return ?

[@ajflink]

lambda is like decorator. They are useful tools but you are not severely crippling yourself by not using them. Due to what I am coding for and how I write Python code, I have never saw any need or desire to use decorators. I do see personal usage for lambda, though.

[@magic_cow]

In a thing I’m working on, I used lambda functions and assigned them to a variable, because they allowed my to put some a if else statement onto 1 line instead of 5 lines, this was amazing since this allowed me to bring 15 lines of codes down to 3 lines of code UPDATE: I put the lambda functions into the things that were calling it, now I am saving 3 more lines of code. Yippie! Function format: (Line 1: defining function Line 2: if statement Line 3: run function Line 4: else statement Line 5: run diffrent function)
