Javascript Web Development Object Oriented Programming

Lambda function is a small anonymous function that consist of only one expression and can take one or multiple parameters. They basically allow functions to be passed as parameter to other functions. Since in JavaScript, functions are treated as object so they can be passed and returned from other functions to implement lambda functions.
