The lambda function (also known as a lambda expression or simply a lambda) is a powerful feature that allows developers to define an anonymous function object right at the location where the lambda is invoked. Instead of having to create an entire named function for just a handful of lines of code, lambdas encapsulate these lines into an anonymous function object, vastly improving readability.

In this article, we will thoroughly explore the syntax and usage of lambda functions in C++, beginning with simple examples and expanding to more complex and niche examples.
