Hi,

It is an important restriction on Python. So Javasctip has several way
of doing lambda, correct?

Thanks

 One point worth making is that Python lambdas are artificially restricted:
 the body of a Python lambda may only be a single expression, not a
 sequence
 of statements.  This restriction is for ideological reasons (the BDFL does
 not *want* you to do that) not for technical reasons.  Lisp and Algol 68
 were doing lambda expressions in the 60s.

 As well as function (x, y) { ... },
 modern Javascript has (x, y) => ....
 with subtly different semantics.
