nice use of capitalize(), gotta use it in my code next time

oops, thought the grid is x-positive and y-negative based D:

Check the issue above.

it's n = y+1, s = y-1 instead of n = y-1, s = y+1 in test.

done

I feel like the string e = 1, w = -1, likewise n = 1, s = -1 in description is pretty weird, maybe this should be slightly better (prob needs to be corrected as well):

e = x+1, w = x-1, likewise n = y-1, s = y+1

Otherwise, not bad

python new test framework is required. updated in this fork

Hi @Rockkley.

Lambdas are anonymous callable objects. If you want call it later, you must use a variable, no other choice to do that. And here (in codewars) if there no name, unit test cannot check the solution.

For your information, in python, a def (and so, a fonction) defined like that create a variable:

def foobar(): pass

The variable created is foobar, the proof, you can do that:

def foobar(): pass
foobar = 1234

It's the aim of the mechanism under the concept of decorators.

If you prefer i can use these solutions instead of lambda, the solution will be acepted:

# Common accepted solution
def check(s, e): return e in s

# Another solution
def singleton(c): return c()
@singleton
class check:
  def __call__(self, s, e):
    return e in s

I know that lambda is anonymous function, and there's no need to create variable for lambda, but here we need to meet the interface requirements. Requirement here is that check is callable.

In real world I would not create function for this one liner, that's why I'm showing solution with lambda.

variable "check" holds the function. and ambda describes the oneliner function.

mult = lambda a,b:a*b

is the same as

def mult(a,b):
return a*b
