Matlab's Inline function in Python

In Matlab, we can do

x = -10:.1:10;
f = inline('normpdf(x,3,2) + normpdf(x,-5,1)','x');
t = plot(x,f(x))

Do we have a similar function like inline in Python?

Solution

  • I think the python equivalent of "Inline" would be lambda

     Matlab:
 f = inline('normpdf(x,3,2) + normpdf(x,-5,1)','x');

 python:
 f = lambda x : normpdf(x,3,2) + normpdf(x,-5,1)
 # Assuming that normpdf is defined and in scope ;-)
