Python的拉姆达在lambda

Question

g = lambda x:[lambda x:x*1, lambda x:x*x, lambda x:x*x*x, lambda x:42][x%4](x) 

[g(x) for x in xrange(12)] 

这是什么顺序的下一个值？

Answer 1

你尝试了吗？

>>> g = lambda x:[lambda x:x*1, lambda x:x*x, lambda x:x*x*x, lambda x:42][x%4](x) 
>>> [g(x) for x in xrange(12)] 
[0, 1, 8, 42, 4, 25, 216, 42, 8, 81, 1000, 42] 

下面是每个价值是如何计算的：

[ 
0,  # x is 0, x%4 is 0, so g(x) becomes (lambda x:x*1)(0) or 0*1 
1,  # x is 1, x%4 is 1, so g(x) becomes (lambda x:x*x)(1) or 1*1 
8,  # x is 2, x%4 is 2, so g(x) becomes (lambda x:x*x*x)(2) or 2*2*2 
42, # x is 3, x%4 is 3, so g(x) becomes (lambda x:42)(3) or 42 
4,  # x is 4, x%4 is 0, so g(x) becomes (lambda x:x*1)(4) or 4*1 
25, # x is 5, x%4 is 1, so g(x) becomes (lambda x:x*x)(5) or 5*5 
216, # x is 6, x%4 is 2, so g(x) becomes (lambda x:x*x*x)(6) or 6*6*6 
42, # x is 7, x%4 is 3, so g(x) becomes (lambda x:42)(7) or 42 
8,  # x is 8, x%4 is 0, so g(x) becomes (lambda x:x*1)(8) or 8*1 
81, # x is 9, x%4 is 1, so g(x) becomes (lambda x:x*x)(9) or 9*9 
1000, # x is 10, x%4 is 2, so g(x) becomes (lambda x:x*x*x)(10) or 10*10*10 
42  # x is 11, x%4 is 3, so g(x) becomes (lambda x:42)(11) or 42 
] 

基本上g(x)调用列表中的其中一个功能与x作为参数，在列表理解与xrange它会循环调用时功能，每第四次调用都是相同的功能。

我知道这只是一个练习来帮助理解Python，但是您应该注意，这是非常低效的代码，因为在每次调用g()时都会重新创建所有四个函数。如果你真的需要这种行为会更好，只是创建def功能包含几个if语句（这将使代码更具可读性以及）。

Answer 2

我想这样做是为了得到一个更好的主意来发生的事情（发表评论，如果您需要进一步的说明）

In [44]: g = lambda x:[lambda x:x*1, lambda x:x*x, lambda x:x*x*x, lambda x:42][x%4](x) 

In [45]: {x:g(x) for x in xrange(12)} 
Out[45]: 
{0: 0, 
1: 1, 
2: 8, 
3: 42, 
4: 4, 
5: 25, 
6: 216, 
7: 42, 
8: 8, 
9: 81, 
10: 1000, 
11: 42}
