Composing functions in python

Question

I have an array of functions and I\'m trying to produce one function which consists of the composition of the elements in my array. My approach is:

def compo         


        

Answer 1

The most reliable implementation I have found is in the 3rd party library toolz. The compose function from this library also deals with docstring for the composition of functions.

The source code is freely available. Below is a simple example of usage.

from toolz import compose

def f(x):
    return x+1

def g(x):
    return x*2

def h(x):
    return x+3

res = compose(f, g, h)(5)  # 17
