Hi all,

I threw something together on a whim and would like your opinion of it.

Inspired by JavaScript and it’s use of callbacks for IO-bound functions:

expensiveFunction("argument", function(result) {
    console.log("The results are: " + result);
})

I did this.

def callback(result):
    print "The results are: %s" % result

invoke(expensive_function, callback)

Code here:

Question is, is there already a way of doing this? If not, what could be
made better, faster, stronger? I’m calling it “invoke” but I’m sure there’s
already an established term for it, do you know of any?

Best,
Marcus
