Is there a better, more FP style, more Pythonic way to
write this:
def compute_vectors(samples, dset):
vectors = {}
for d in dset:
vectors[d] = [sample.get_val(d) for sample in
samples]
return vectors
Namely, I'd like to get rid of the initilization
(vectors = {}) and also the loop Yet, I'd hate to put
an assignment into Python's FP list comprehensions.
Ideally, I'd like something like this:
vectors.dict_add({d:result}) for [sample.get_val(d)
for sample in samples for d in dset].
Is there anything like that? Am I missing the
picture?
Thanks.
PS If possible, please cc me on all responses, thanks.
The logical thing to use would be
return dict([(d, sample.getval(d)) for d in dset for sample in samples])
which (I think) should work from 2.2 onwards.
