- python - List comprehension vs. lambda + filter - Stack Overflow
by_attribute = lambda x: x attribute == value xs = filter(by_attribute , xs) Yes, that's two lines of code instead of one, but you clean filter expression from cumbersome lambda and by naming lambda nicely it literally becomes being read as "filter by attribute" :)

- What is the difference between a closure and a lambda?
The closure of a lambda expression is this particular set of symbols defined in the outer context (environment) that give values to the free symbols in this expression, making them non-free anymore It turns an open lambda expression, which still contains some "undefined" free symbols, into a closed one, which doesn't have any free symbols anymore
