Lambda with another lambda parameter.

I'm wondering how did we obtained the output 12 in the last example. Some step by step clarification would be appriciated.

Hi Oscr!
Thanks for reaching out.


The lambda function sum_xy accepts two arguments - a number and a lambda function. This is why when we use the argument 2 we obtain 12. This argument 2 is applied to the lambda function and we get 2*5=10. Then, we sum the argument 2 with 10 and we obtain 12.


Hope this helps.
Best,
Tsvetelin
