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.
