Recap: Python’s map() function takes a function and an iterable—such as a list—as arguments. It then applies the function to each element in the iterable. It returns a map object. ? But what if you don’t need a map object but a list? Old: In Python 2.x this was easy: the map() function simply returned … Read more

The map() function transforms one or more iterables into a new one by applying a “transformator function” to the i-th elements of each iterable. The arguments are the transformator function object and one or more iterables. If you pass n iterables as arguments, the transformator function must be an n-ary function taking n input arguments. … Read more
