Well, if you're a c++ programmer, then you've probably ran into
`functors' at one time or another. You can emulate it by making a
python object that is `callable'.
class functor:
def __init__(self):
self.ordered_sequence = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
def __call__(self, arg1, arg2):
self.ordered_sequence.extend((arg1,arg2))
self.ordered_sequence.sort()
>>> f = functor()
>>> f(3,5)
>>> f.ordered_sequence
[1, 2, 3, 3, 4, 5, 5]
Hope that helps some.
