For example, I often use this class to help me in functional programming :
_marker = ()
class var:
def __init__(self, v=None):
self.v = v
def __call__(self, v=_marker):
if v is not _marker:
self.v = v
return self.v
and so the nested functions become very functional :
def accum(n):
acc = var(n)
return lambda incr: acc(acc()+incr)
