Code:
PEP 292 adds a Template class to the string module that uses "$" to
indicate a substitution. Template is a subclass of the built-in
Unicode type, so the result is always a Unicode string:
u'2: The Best of Times'
If a key is missing from the dictionary, the substitute method will
raise a KeyError. There's also a safe_substitute method that ignores
missing keys:
u'3: $title'
Code:
As a slightly more realistic example, the following decorator
checks that the supplied argument is an integer:
def require_int (func):
def wrapper (arg):
assert isinstance(arg, int)
return func(arg)
return wrapper
@require_int
def p1 (arg):
print arg
@require_int
def p2(arg):
print arg*2
Serioulsy, one of python's main selling points is its elegant syntax,
non perl like, non C like. If it can't live up to it. I guess i might
as well use perl or ruby or server side javascript.
how annoying.
