Module 2 quiz

Hi guys, i need help. I have task: "fill in the blanks to colculate the expression x*(x+1) using an anonymous function and call it for the number 6". And i think, that's true answer is: " a = (lambda x: x*(x+1)) a(6) print(a) " But it is wrong and i don't understand why. Please help, if you can

You should print the value of a(6) not a itself because a contains the object of that function. try this: print(a(6))

No, it is does not work, cos in these place i couldn't redacted. No, i am already done it. It looks like: a=(lambda x:x*(x+1))(6) print(a)

a = (lambda x: x*(x+1)) print(a(7)) a = (lambda x: x*(x+1))(7) print(a) Both works same. But 2nd one only working for argument 7. While 1st one works for any number You can update 2nd one same as 1st like x=int(input()) a = (lambda x: x*(x+1))(x) #or #a = (lambda x: x*(x+1))(int(input())) print(a)

The way the code is displayed on the question is really misleading: It should be displayed as: a = (BLANK x: x BLANK (x+1))(BLANK) print(a) From this it is easier to see you only need 2 rows
