There example code here becomes invalid 
https://docs.python.org/3/faq/programming.html#why-do-lambdas-defined-in-a-loop-with-different-values-all-return-the-same-result
>>> squares = []
>>> for x in range(5):
	squares.append(lambda: x**2)

	
>>> squares
[<function <lambda> at 0x01FB7A08>, <function <lambda> at 0x01F82390>, <function <lambda> at 0x01FBA3D8>, <function <lambda> at 0x01FBA420>, <function <lambda> at 0x01FBA468>]
>>> 

There returned value is a List of lambda functions, not numbers
