lambda_expr_nocond: "lambda" [`parameter_list`]: `expression_nocond`
Lambda expressions (sometimes called lambda forms) are used to create anonymous
-functions. The expression ``lambda arguments: expression`` yields a function

object. The unnamed object behaves like a function object defined with:
