Topic: Newbie Nugget Decorators

Topic: Factory module: http://pypi.python.org/pypi/Factory/
Speaker: Pete Fein
LINKS:
The Factory module is a more powerful implementation of this pattern. Some improvements include:
- safer, as invalid arguments are detected immediately, instead of at call time
- intelligent support for classes, instance methods & all other callables
- bound arguments can be inspected and modified as attributes
- several convenient methods for (re)binding arguments
Using Factories can:
- simplify writing callbacks
- reduce bugs in concurrent applications
- provide easy lazy evaluation
This talk will demonstrate the Factory module and discuss its
implementation and uses. Familiarity with currying is helpful but not
required. More information is available at http://pypi.python.org/pypi/Factory/
