New submission from Jason Baker <amnorv...@gmail.com>: I've created a patch that adds some common functional programming tools to functools. I've made the patch to work against Python 3.2, but that may be a bit aggressive. If so, then I can adapt it to work with 3.3.
I also wouldn't be opposed to writing some of these in C if there's a performance need. The functions I added are: * flip - flip the first two arguments of a function * const - return a function that always returns the same thing * compose - compose multiple functions together * identity - returns what is passed in to it * trampoline - calls a function and then calls any returned functions. ---------- components: Library (Lib) files: functools.patch keywords: patch messages: 127062 nosy: Jason.Baker priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: More functools functions versions: Python 3.2, Python 3.3 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file20520/functools.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue11011> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
