PRACTICAL-1
AIM:- To understand the overall programming
architecture using Map Reduce API.
The MapReduce task is mainly divided into two phases Map Phase and Reduce
Phase.
1. map(), filter(), and reduce() in Python.
2.These functions are most commonly used with Lambda function.
1. map():
"A map function executes certain instructions or functionality provided to it on
every item of an iterable."The iterable could be a list, tuple, set, etc.
SYNTAX:
map(function, iterable)
Example:
items = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
a=list(map((lambda x: x **3), items))
print(a)
OUTPUT:
The map()function passes each element in the list to a lambda function and
returns the mapped object.
2.filter():-
"A filter function in Python tests a specific user-defined condition for a function
and returns an iterable for the elements and values that satisfy the condition or,
in other words, return true."

SYNTAX:
filter(function, iterable)
Example:
a = [1,2,3,4,5,6]
b = [2,5,0,7,3]
c= list(filter(lambda x: x in a, b))
print(c)
OUTPUT:
3.reduce():
"Reduce functions apply a function to every item of an iterable and gives back a
single value as a resultant".
we have to import the reduce function from functools module using the
statement
SYNTAX:
reduce(function, iterable)
Example:
from functools import reduce
a=reduce( (lambda x, y: x * y), [1, 2, 3, 4] )
print(a)
