Q1. What is lambda function?
Ans. 
A lambda function is a small anonymous function defined using the lambda keyword in Python.
• Lambda functions can take any number of arguments but can only have one expression.

• They are often used for short, throwaway functions, especially in functional programming.

• Example: `lambda x: x * 2` creates a function that doubles its input.

• Commonly used with functions like `map()`, `filter()`, and `reduce()`.

• Example with `map`: ...read more

Q2. How does a dictionary work?
Ans. 
A dictionary is a data structure that stores key-value pairs for efficient data retrieval and manipulation.
• Keys are unique identifiers used to access values.

• Values can be of any data type, such as strings, numbers, or lists.

• Example: In Python, {'name': 'Alice', 'age': 30} has 'name' as a key and 'Alice' as its value.

• Dictionaries allow for fast lookups, additions, and deletions of key-value pairs.

• They are implemented us
