I need a clarification of the argument. Are the opponents saying that I should not be able to:
def compose(list_of_functions): return reduce(lambda f, g: lambda x: f(g(x)), list_of_functions)
Personally, I think something like this is a place where lambdas are probably better than named functions. Still, you can do this without lambdas:
def compose(list_of_functions):
def compose2(f, g):
def func(x):
return f(g(x))
return func
return reduce(compose2, list_of_functions)
And may I see the proposed "better" replacement for function composition.
Whether this is better or not, I don't know.
