+1 on prepartial in functools.
So far, I've only seen this one use case for prepartial - and I'd rather have decorator_withargs itself than prepartial. Do you have any other use cases for prepartial (from real code somewhere)?
Currently, I'm -1 on adding prepartial to functools, and +0.5 on adding something like decorator_withargs.
Are you also -1 on partial's being in functools?
Not that it matters, since it's already there, but no, I wasn't.
Good. I was. It got in.
In fact, the presence of partial is a big reason not to need prepartial
Fallacy.
-- most existing use cases are already covered by using partial.
Lacks citation.
As Arnaud pointed out, if you restrict decorator_withargs to keyword arguments,
You don't.
Thus, I don't see prepartial as really covering many new use cases.
Syllogism:
A -> B A _____ B
Thus what again?
If you'd like to convince me otherwise, you're going to need to post some use cases from real code.
curry= partial( partial, prepartial ) [1]
