Embedding a[nother] domain specific language in a string also doesn't
decrease complexity; look at all the regular expression builders.
Unless you're a core developer (or perhaps not even then), I suspect
that most library functions started as "personal" functions. Hey,
here's something I need for this project ... hey, I just wrote that for
the last project ... how many times will I write this before I stick it
in general_utilities ... let's see what python-ideas thinks ...
Add the following to your personal library and see how many times you
use it in the coming weeks or months:
def string_from_iterable_of_characters(iterable):
return ''.join(iterable)
I haven't tested anything, but string_from_iterable_of_characters should
take everything inside your c-strings unchanged.
