Hey! I didn't know you could do that. I'm happy. My lambdas just grew parenthesis on the arguments: >>> f=lambda(x):x+1 >>> f(2) 3 >>> def go(f,x): ... print f(x) ... >>> go(lambda(x):x+1,1) 2 >>> go(lambda(x,y):x+y,(1,3)) 4 >>> /c _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
