Is it possible to get a parameter before a function?

Question

Python

Is it possible to get a parameter before a function?
I have a parameter that is needed in the /lambda function

lambda user : user == ctx.author
user = ...

(User must be after the /lambda function in my code, otherwise it will not work)

Answer 1

This "parameter" is what is passed to the function.
lambda user: user
similar to the function

def myfunction(user):
    return user

What did you even want to do? Why take lambda?
