New submission from Michael Newman <michael.b.new...@gmail.com>: The recipe for "unique_justseen" listed on: http://docs.python.org/3.0/library/itertools.html uses "imap", which is not available in Python 3.0.
I fixed it by changing "imap" to just "map", and I also changing "itemgetter" to "operator.itemgetter" to make the namespace usage clearer in the recipe: Python 3.0.1 (r301:69561, Feb 13 2009, 20:04:18) [MSC v.1500 32 bit (Intel)] on win32 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> from itertools import * >>> import operator >>> def unique_justseen(iterable, key=None): ... "List unique elements, preserving order. Remember only the element just seen." ... # unique_justseen('AAAABBBCCDAABBB') --> A B C D A B ... # unique_justseen('ABBCcAD', str.lower) --> A B C A D ... return map(next, map(operator.itemgetter(1), groupby(iterable, key))) ... >>> unique_justseen('AAAABBBCCDAABBB') <map object at 0x00BB2690> >>> list(unique_justseen('AAAABBBCCDAABBB')) ['A', 'B', 'C', 'D', 'A', 'B'] >>> unique_justseen('ABBCcAD', str.lower) <map object at 0x00BB2650> >>> list(unique_justseen('ABBCcAD', str.lower)) ['A', 'B', 'C', 'A', 'D'] >>> ---------- assignee: georg.brandl components: Documentation messages: 83943 nosy: georg.brandl, mnewman severity: normal status: open title: imap usage in itertools unique_justseen recipe versions: Python 3.0 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue5532> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
