Developer Tools - Pythonic functional programming

Functional programming tools which endeavor to be Pythonic.

• Repositories
  • dtools.fp project on PyPI
  • Source code on GitHub
• Detailed documentation for dtools.fp
  • Detailed API documentation on GH-Pages

This project is part of the Developer Tools for Python dtools. namespace project.

Modules

• dtools.fp.err_handling
  • monadic tools for handling missing values & unexpected events
• dtools.fp.function
  • utilities to manipulate and partially apply functions
• dtools.fp.iterables
  • iteration tools implemented in Python
• dtools.fp.lazy
  • lazy (non-strict) function evaluation
• dtools.fp.nothingness
  • singleton classes representing either a
    • missing value
    • sentinel value
    • failed calculation
• dtools.fp.state
  • pure FP handling of state (the state monad)

Benefits of FP

• improved composability
• avoid exception driven code paths
• data sharing becomes trivial due to immutability
