map function
By using map we can apply function to each item of any iterable
map(function,iterable)
function can be built in or user defined
iterable can be list, tuple , set etc
Using built-in function
String function len returns length of a string.
my_list=['Alex','Ronald','John']
my_list1=map(len,my_list) # using built in function len
print(list(my_list1))
Output
[4, 6, 4]
Using user defined function
The function my_function will add 5 and return to each number it receives.
MATH=[20,30,40]
def my_function(n):
return n+5
my_list1=map(my_function,MATH)
print(list(my_list1))
Output
[25, 35, 45]
Using Multiple iterators
We can get sum of three subjects
MATH=[20,30,40]
ENGLISH=[30,40,50]
SCIENCE=[40,50,60]
def my_function(a,b,c):
return a+b+c
my_list1=map(my_function,MATH,ENGLISH,SCIENCE)
print(list(my_list1))
Output
[90, 120, 150]
