[Python-ideas] Decorators on loops

[Enric Tejedor]

Hello,

I would like to discuss a new use of python decorators. I apologize if
this has already been suggested before.

The basic idea would be to support decorators on loops, in addition to
functions and classes. Something like this:

@mydecorator
for i in range(10):
     # loop body

In mydecorator, I would like to have access to the loop body and the
iterable object.

In my case, I would use this to parallelize the iterations of the loop.


Thank you for your feedback,


Enric
