Lambdas helpsss

Question

why there is no comma before the (-4)?

like:

print((lambda x: x**2 + 5*x + 4) , (-4))

(on this lesson its like:

print((lambda x: x**2 + 5*x + 4) (-4))
)

Answer 1

(lambda x: x**2 + 5*x + 4) creates a function, this is the equivalent of doing this:

def func(x):
return x**2 + 5*x + 4

the second part, the (-4) becomes the argument being passed to that function. it would be similar to this:

print(func(-4))

I like to see lamdbas as values, it might have been more clear to do this instead:

func = (lambda x: x**2 + 5*x + 4)
print(func(-4))

I hope this helps :)
