Convert function-quoted form #'... to string

Question

I have tried (symbol-name x), but it doesn't work if the argument is a lambda:

#'execute-extended-command

#'(lambda (&optional frame) (interactive) (message "hi 8"))

That's why a lambda definition is called an "anonymous" function, What are you *really* trying to do? — NickD, May 18 '20 at 12:46

I don't know why you need this, but one way is:

(format "%s" #'(lambda () (interactive)))

⇒

"(closure (t) nil (interactive))"
