Here is some information about lamba functions:
https://www.w3schools.com/python/python_lambda.asp

syntax for lambas:

x = lambda a : a + 10

Here the result will be returned to the variable x

Use expense as the parameter and return the value of the amount key in the expense dictionary.

The expense dictionary will take the place of a in the syntax example.

Please let me know if you have a more specific question
