Python map() and lambda() Use Cases and Examples

Image
 In Python, map() and lambda functions are often used together for functional programming. Here are some examples to illustrate how they work. Python map and lambda top use cases 1. Using map() with lambda The map() function applies a given function to all items in an iterable (like a list) and returns a map object (which can be converted to a list). Example: Doubling Numbers numbers = [ 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 ] doubled = list ( map ( lambda x: x * 2 , numbers)) print (doubled) # Output: [2, 4, 6, 8, 10] 2. Using map() to Convert Data Types Example: Converting Strings to Integers string_numbers = [ "1" , "2" , "3" , "4" , "5" ] integers = list ( map ( lambda x: int (x), string_numbers)) print (integers) # Output: [1, 2, 3, 4, 5] 3. Using map() with Multiple Iterables You can also use map() with more than one iterable. The lambda function can take multiple arguments. Example: Adding Two Lists Element-wise list1 = [ 1 , 2 , 3 ]

Python Function Argument: How to Pass it to Decorator

A decorator is a wrapper and provides additional functionality to a function. Also, it may modify the behavior, such as changing the return type/adding new abilities. Python Decorators Precisely, it is another form of function pointers . Also, it accepts function argument, then either wraps the function or returns a new one. Moreover, it modifies the inputs/outputs supplied to it. It helps you add behavior to functions (objects) dynamically (without changing the function behavior). Function Argument Below, you will find an example of passing a function argument to a decorator. The below function modifies inputs and returns output. def to_upper(func):     text=func()     if isinstance(text,str):         return text.upper() def say():     return "welcome" def hello():     return "hello"      a = to_upper(say) print(a)  b = to_upper(hello) print(b)   Output WELCOME HELLO ** Process exited - Return Code: 0 ** Press Enter to exit terminal References How to write th
