Re: how do you use a closure in a class

What I wanted it to know how to. Take a function like. Note replace ... with spaces. def makeAddr(tAdd): def add(tNum): return tNum + tAdd return add In a class so I make several functions that do the same thing but on diffrent objects. I ended up writing a base function and just

Re: how do you use a closure in a class

Also note I can't read or type is seems. what I want to know is how to take a function like. I realley need to fininsh my coke before I try to think. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Re: how do you use a closure in a class

See the following. -- Paul class X(object): pass def makeAddr(tAdd): def add(self, tNum): return tNum + tAdd return add # add methods to class X X.add1 = makeAddr(1) X.add100 = makeAddr(100) # create an X object x = X() # invoke new methods print x.add1( 50 ) print

Re: how do you use a closure in a class

Thanks I will try that. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Re: how do you use a closure in a class

Thanks that made it work. If I did it that way I think the other programmers on my team would kill me so I will stick with wrapping the function over and over again. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

how do you use a closure in a class

I have several functions that are almost the same in one class I would like to use a closure to get rid of the extra code how would I do this? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Re: how do you use a closure in a class

Well, I'm not sure closure is the Pythonic way. But in Python, you can use functions to dynamically create other functions. Here's an example of this feature (although there are far simpler ways to do this), tallying vowels and consonants in an input string by calling a function looked up in a

Re: how do you use a closure in a class

Well, despite my parenthetical disclaimer, my attempted point was that the OP wanted to avoid replicating several functions that were mostly the same. I think Python's idiom of using a function to create and return callables is a comparable feature to using anonymous closures. Unfortunately, I
