You're not making any sense. The sequence argument is not listed and the
lambda
is unnecessary. Try this instead:
any(x[3] == 'thiskey' for x in seq)

I think you don't understand what you already have to work with in Py2.5a -- a
boolean expression in a genexp should always suffice -- no separate lambda
based
predicate function is ever required.
