but i get:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<pyshell#56>", line 1, in <module>
compose(sqr, cube, 2)
TypeError: compose() takes exactly 2 arguments (3 given)
this:
>>> def compose(f, g, x): return f(g(x))
>>> compose(sqr, cube, 2)
64
works though
. so just a mistake on his part? but it looks like he just copied his
shell...has there been a change since 2004 inr egards to how you can
pass functions as arguments to functions??
