5. Recursion and Lambda Functions

Recursion Challenge: Search Engine Lambda Functions Immediately Invoked Lambda Expression Writing Effective and Maintainable Functions

Immediately Invoked Lambda Expression

The immediate invocation of a lambda function (IIFE) serves several purposes:

Variable Locality: the lambda function is invoked immediately, and any variables defined within it exist only within the scope of that function. This helps avoid naming conflicts with other parts of the code.
Code Isolation: an IIFE allows you to isolate a portion of code by encapsulating it within a function. This is particularly useful when you need to define temporary variables or scopes for a specific code fragment, avoiding impact on the rest of the program.
Global Namespace Protection: using an IIFE helps prevent additional pollution of the global namespace, as it is only used where it is declared.

square = (lambda x: x**2)(5)
print(square)

This expression consists of a lambda function (lambda x: x**2) designed to calculate the square of a number, and it is immediately invoked with the argument (5).

Edit a lambda function for converting temperature from degrees Celsius to degrees Fahrenheit. The conversion formula looks like this:

Celsius temperature is stored in the celsius_temperature variable.
The fahrenheit temperature should be saved before changing fahrenheit_temperature.
