PROGRAM EXPLANATION
Algorithm and explanation
- Initialize the sample values used to transform values with map.
- Apply map() and lambda to compute the required result.
- Display the result for transform values with map and compare it with the documented sample output.
This example of transform values with map computes the result directly from the prepared sample data. It demonstrates map() and lambda and prints a deterministic result that can be checked against the sample output.

DEBUGGING CHECKLIST
Common mistakes
For transform values with map, keep the data shape and value types consistent with map().
Apply map() in the same order shown by the algorithm; changing the order can change the result.
Verify the final map() and lambda result against the sample before trying new data.
