Performs right-to-left function composition.
|
|
|
|
Use `functools.reduce()` to perform right-to-left function composition.
|
|
The last (rightmost) function can accept one or more arguments; the remaining functions must be unary.
|
|
|
|
```py
|
|
from functools import reduce
|
|
|
|
def compose(*fns):
|
|
return reduce(lambda f, g: lambda *args: f(g(*args)), fns)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```py
|
|
add5 = lambda x: x + 5
|
|
multiply = lambda x, y: x * y
|
|
multiply_and_add_5 = compose(add5, multiply)
|
|
|
|
multiply_and_add_5(5, 2) # 15
|
|
```
