Calling a lambda expression multiple times

Question

I\'m trying the lambda-expressions from the new standard, and still don\'t understand them quite well.

Let\'s say I have a lambda somewhere in my code, e.g. in my main:<

You can store the lambda using auto, or assign it to a compatible std::function explicitly:

auto f1 = [](int x, int y)->float{ ..... };
std::function f2 = [](int x, int y)->float{ ..... };

float x = f1(3,4);
auto y = f2(5,6);

You can always use f1 or f2 to construct or assign to a specific std::function type later on if necessary:

std::function f3 = f1;
