Of course. lambdas are especially useful for callback functions, which
are especially common when doing GUI programming.

Yers lots of people, all over the place. They are very useful things.
Why would anyone use a one liner anonymous function,

My question is, why "a is b" is true. What I expected it to be is that, a
and b are different things with same value.

This is a special feature called interning in python. As of Python 2.6,
values of -5 to 105 are never cleared from memory for performance reasons.
This is applicable to integers only.
"==" is a value comparator, whereas "is" is a reference compartor.
Check this interesting extension to your code:

It's an optimization thing. When you type "a=5," the python
interpreter is obligated to give y

Even stranger:

>>> b = 10**10
>>> a == b
True
>>> a is b
False
>>> a =

'lines' : (lambda rec, tot: tot + 1, 0),

I'll get to it! (0001 = a, 0010 = b, ...)

110

'n'
