Python: pass "not" as a lambda function

I need to pass a function as a parameter that works as the boolean “not”. I tried something like this but it didn’t work because not isn’t a function.

theFunction(callback=not) # Doesn't work :(

I need to do the following, but I wonder if there exists any predefined function that does this simple job, so that I don’t have to redefine it like this:

theFunction(callback=lambda b: not b, anotherCallback=lambda b: not b)

---

Note: I can’t change the fact that I have to pass a function like this because it’s an API call.

Solution:

Yes, there is the operator module: https://docs.python.org/3.6/library/operator.html

import operator
theFunction(callback=operator.not_)
