    [$] "Real" anonymous functions for Python

    Date:
    Tue, 19 Mar 2024 21:18:30 +0000

    Description:
    There are a number of different language-enhancement ideas that crop up
    with some
    regularity in
    the Python community; many of them have been debated and shot down multiple times over the years. When one inevitably arises anew, it can sometimes be difficult to tamp it down, even if it is unlikely that the idea will go
    any further than the last N times it cropped up. A recent discussion about "real" anonymous functions follows a somewhat predictable path, but there
    are still reasons to participate in vetting these "new" ideas, despite the tiresome, repetitive
    nature of the exerciseexamples of
    recurring feature ideas that were eventually adopted definitely exist .
