Ignoring the docttests my process would be to process each word & then
manually capitalize he 1st word, .I would als0 use a comprehension as
makes for cleaner code:-
def capitalize(word):
if word in small_words:
return word
else:
return word.title()
And I'd do this with a lambda, but that's just me. Of course, if your
logic is more complicated, it makes more sense to keep it in a named
function, but a single conditional call can fit nicely into a lambda.
Lambdas are great when needed, but if don't *need* it, and you have more
than a few, debugging can be a nightmare... "Okay, so this is function
<lambda>... and that is function <lambda>... and over here we also have
function <lambda>... ARGH!"
