Use of lambda() with map()

The map() function in Python returns a list of the results after applying the given function to each item of a given iterable (list, tuple etc.). The general syntax of map() function is map(fun, iter). We can also use lambda functions with map(). The general syntax of map() function with lambda() is map(lambda <agument>:<expression>, iter). Refer to slide 5 of video 1.7 for general help of map() function with lambda().

In this exercise, you'll be using lambda function inside the map() built-in function to square all numbers in the list.
