a while ago on this list, we had a bit of discussion about having a
sequence view.
It started with my more focused idea for a built in slice iterator, which I
wrote up some time ago here:
https://github.com/PythonCHB/islice-pep
Then an even more expansive idea of a general purpose View was
Apologies if this has already been raised at some point, but I wanted to
raise the idea of a basic standard library toolkit for operations on
async iterators.
This would include versions of functions that are already in the
standard library for non-async iterators, such as *map*, *filter*,*zip
Interesting. Just to comment, Mr. Mertz is realistic in the algorithmic sense.
Running time is highly affected by various factors. For example, lets just
assume that an insertion sort of O(N^2) time on a quantum computer is fast
enough for all kinds of task in the world. So, naturally, there
Indeed, it's not directly related, perhaps misunderstanding, but I'm just
drawing the similar idea between the two situations of not taking memory first.
If you slice, you make a copy and that takes space. So, the space complexity is
no longer O(1). It's just that, not that it has any direct
Insightful! You mentioned terms like 'memory_view', and 'lazy slice'. You felt
the pulse of the situation. But the most elegant thing (I had it a long time
ago but you brought it up before, haha) is that you notice the downside of
copies - you indicated how a lazy slice is the magic wand that
