âThat meant representation for all.â. Since then, the best of North Carolinaâs legislative leaders, though not all, have presided over its chambers with an eye toward good government. But last weekâs session was a reversion to the strong-arm rule that Republicans decried in the 1980s.
An identity function is a function that always returns the same value as its argument. In other words, the identity function is the function f(x) = x. x.
In computer programming, an anonymous function is a function definition that is not bound to an identifier. Anonymous functions are often: arguments being passed to higher-order functions, or used for constructing the result of a higher-order function that needs to return a function. If the function is only used once, or a limited number of times, an anonymous function may be syntactically lighter than using a named function. Anonymous functions are ubiquitous in functional programming languages and other languages with first-class functions, where they fulfill the same role for the function type as literals do for other data types.
