New submission from Antony Lee <anntzer....@gmail.com>:
Adding a call/__call__ function to the operator module (where `operator.call(*args, **kwargs)(func) == func(*args, **kwargs)`, similarly to operator.methodcaller) seems consistent with the design with the rest of the operator module. An actual use case I had for such an operator was collecting a bunch of callables in a list and wanting to dispatch them to concurrent.futures.Executor.map, i.e. something like `executor.map(operator.call, funcs)` (to get the parallelized version of `[func() for func in funcs]`). ---------- components: Library (Lib) messages: 392809 nosy: Antony.Lee priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: operator.call/operator.__call__ versions: Python 3.11 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue44019> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
