Hi, i am trying, to no avail yet, to take a C#'s overloaded functions skeleton and rewrite it in Python by using closures. I read somewhere on the net (http://dirtsimple.org/2004/12/python-is- not-java.html) that in Python we can reduce code duplication for overloaded functions by using closures.
I do not quite understand this. Let's say we have the following simple C# code: int func(int i) { return i * 2; } string func(string s) { return s + s; } bool func(bool f) { return !f; } I wasn't able to find a way to express this thing in closures. I even tried to have the parameters i, s and f as parameters with default arguments with None value in the inner function and there to check for the None and do the needed work but i am not sure if this is the correct solution. Any help ? thanks in advance. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
