Ok. I remotely recall Guido suggesting that print should become a function. It's not a specific example though: what precise library provides the visit method? > which currently is not possible. Another example is, > > map(lambda x: if odd(x): return 1 > else: return 0, > listOfNumbers) Hmm. What's wrong with map(odd, listOfNumbers) or, if you really need ints: map(lambda x:int(odd(x)), listOfNumbers) > Also, anything with exception handling code can't be without explicit > function definition. > > collection.visit(lambda x: try: foo(x); except SomeError: error("error > message")) That's not a specific example.
