Now that you have a good idea at how to work with anonymous functions, it’s time to build on that by working with a list. A list comes with two different functions called map and filter. We will start with the map function.

var names = [
    { 'firstName': 'Frank', 'lastName': 'Oz' },
    { 'firstName': 'Jim', 'lastName': 'Henson' },
    { 'firstName': 'Stan', 'lastName': 'Winston' }
];
var fullNames = 
var fullNames = names.map();
var fullNames = names.map((item) {

});
final firstName = item['firstName'];
final lastName = item['lastName'];
if (firstName != null && lastName != null) {

}
return '$firstName $lastName';
print(fullNames);
var muppetCreators = names.where((item) {

});
final lastName = item['lastName'];
if (lastName != null) {
    return (lastName == 'Oz' || lastName == 'Henson');
}
return false;
print(muppetCreators);
