The third version of FIOC ( Python3000 for you cheese lovers ) is kind of lame, even lamer than classic FIOC. Minor changes suck and bigger ones weren't necessary.

The only real point is to provide a nice, concise way to define inline functions, for which Python's lambda functions are basically as good as it gets.
The only possible objection to Python's lambda functions isn't an objection to the lambda functions themselves, but to the fact that there is a distinction between statements and expressions, which is fair enough.

It's a way to write functions as values. You can give them a name by variable assignment or binding or whatever it's called in your language.
