Okay, I am now what I would call competent in Python.  But, I keep
noticing (learning) some new stuff every time I get an email from
tutor.  There is, however, one thing I am not really sure about,
lambda.  I don't quite understand what a lambda does or why to use it. 
I think I understand map, more or less, but the two are often seen
together.
