Python: Check whether a given string is number or not using Lambda
Python Lambda: Exercise-9 with Solution
Write a Python program to check whether a given string is number or not using Lambda.
Sample Solution:
Python Code :
is_num = lambda q: q.replace('.','',1).isdigit()
print(is_num('26587'))
print(is_num('4.2365'))
print(is_num('-12547'))
print(is_num('00'))
print(is_num('A001'))
print(is_num('001'))
print("\nPrint checking numbers:")
is_num1 = lambda r: is_num(r[1:]) if r[0]=='-' else is_num(r)
print(is_num1('-16.4'))
print(is_num1('-24587.11'))
Sample Output:
True True False True False True Print checking numbers: True True

Python: Tips of the Day
Find current directory and file's directory:
To get the full path to the directory a Python file is contained in, write this in that file:
import os dir_path = os.path.dirname(os.path.realpath(__file__))
(Note that the incantation above won't work if you've already used os.chdir() to change your current working directory, since the value of the __file__ constant is relative to the current working directory and is not changed by an os.chdir() call.)
To get the current working directory use
import os cwd = os.getcwd()
Documentation references for the modules, constants and functions used above:
- The os and os.path modules.
- The __file__ constant
- os.path.realpath(path) (returns "the canonical path of the specified filename, eliminating any symbolic links encountered in the path")
- os.path.dirname(path) (returns "the directory name of pathname path")
- os.getcwd() (returns "a string representing the current working directory")
- os.chdir(path) ("change the current working directory to path")
