I show you a piece of code I need to define a function:
import string
all=string.maketrans('','')
badcars=all.translate(all,string.letters+string.digits)
table=string.maketrans(badcars,'_'*len(badcars))
def translate(text):
return text.translate(table)
What I'm needing as a global (in globals() or at the module level or in
the module namespace) is 'translate'.The rest of bindings (all,badcars
and table) is something which is 'polluting' the module namespace.
Now this is the non polluting version :
class translate:
import string
all=string.maketrans('','')
badcars=all.translate(all,string.letters+string.digits)
@staticmethod
def __call__(text,table=string.maketrans(badcars,'_'*len(badcars))):
return text.translate(table)
translate=translate()
I'd like to have some help from the language in binding names this way.
Hope I've been clearer :)
