Hi Ronald,

I understand this, but I'm a bit confused about fate of lambdas with such guideline since I see no more reasons to use them with p.9 statement: long lines, code duplicate, no mock and well tests etc. - all these problems could be solved with assigning lambda to some name, but now they are looks useless (or useful only for very trivial cases)

Explicit guideline not to assign lambdas to names (use def, that's what it's for) Even for propose to fit chars-per-line limit and/or to remove duplicates (especially for sorted groupby case)? When you do "name = lambda ..." you've created a named function, when you do that your better of using def statement for the reasons Nick mentioned in the PEP. Ronald
