Oh hey Grant, yes, I misunderstood your question for a bit. I thought you
meant the difference between List comprehension [...] and generator
expressions (...) where the first returns the whole list and the second
iterates the whole list.
But, yes, good point if I was only using [:]. For more expressiveness, I
could using the alternative, to the example in my reply to Douglas
def beauty(judge): ...
As an alternative to my reply to Douglas ... and is more cell phone
friendly, due to lack of cumbersome [], which I just mentioned to Mikael,
who came up with an really cool [] solution ... hmmm ...
Translating Mikael's solution to the original c[:]() with some tweaks:
class do(list):
def __call__(self,*args,**kwargs):
return [f(*args,**kwargs) for f in self]
def a(): print 'a called'
def b(): print 'b called'
c = [a,b]
do(c[:])() # close but with cell phone gnarly []
do(c)() # woo hoo!
In recalling Marc's reply about a cool one liner, such a statement
translates in English, as "do everything in c" <insert evil laughter>
Cheers,
