Hello All,
Because of my poorly designing a database, I have recently found it necessary
to explore the wonders of the Python pseudo-switch:
do_case = { "A" : lambda x: x["bob"],
"B" : lambda x: x["carol"],
"C" : lambda x: "Ted",
"D" : lambda x: do_something(x) }
my_thing = do_case[get_value_from_thin_air()](adict)
How to handle this kind of thing when lambda is removed from the language,
beside the obvious def'ing those tiny little functions?
