Lambdas that Rock, Rewriting Python on the Fly

PythonBetterLambda.md

For a long time, I've had a distaste for the syntax of lambda expressions in python.

add1 = lambda value: value + 1
print add1(1)
>>> 2

Compared to syntaxes for the same effect in other languages (like c#), it seems clunky.

var add1 = (x) => x+1;
Console.WriteLine(add1(1));
>>> 2

I thought there must be a way to achieve cleaner syntax in python, and started looking for a solution.

My first thoughts went back to c++ days and operator overloads. Research into these in python yielded some interesting results.
