Creating a list of people
import List
class Person():
def __init__(self, name, age):
self.name = name
self.age = age
def __repr__(self):
return '<Person name="{}" age="{}">'.format(self.name, self.age)
# Creating a list of people
avi, bill, bob, harry = Person('Avi', 23), Person('Bill', 41), Person('Bob', 77), Person('Harry', 55)
people = List(avi, bill, bob, harry)
LINQ selections, cleaner code
old_people = people.where(lambda p: p.age > 40) # [<Person name="Bill" age="41">, <Person name="Bob" age="77">, <Person name="Harry" age="55">]
old_people.first() # <Person name="Bill" age="41">
old_people.last() # <Person name="Harry" age="55">
old_people.any(lambda p: p.name.lower().startswith('b')) # True
old_people.where(lambda p: p.age == 55) # [<Person name="Harry" age="55">]
old_people.skip(3).any() # False
old_people.skip(2).first() # <Person name="Harry" age="55">
# Isn't it better than "for", "if", "else", "filter", "map" and list comprehensions in the middle of your code?
More selections
new_kids_in_town = [Person('Chris', 18), Person('Danny', 16), Person('John', 17)]
people += new_kids_in_town # Also works: people = people.concat(new_kids_in_town)
teenagers = people.where(lambda p: 20 >= p.age >= 13)
danny = teenagers.first(lambda t: t.name == 'Danny') # <Person name="Danny" age="16">
oldest_teen = teenagers.last() # <Person name="Chris" age="18">
Dynamic attributes
names = people.name # ['Avi', 'Bill', 'Bob', 'Harry', 'Chris', 'John']
ages = people.age # [23, 41, 77, 55, 18, 17]
teenagers_names = teenagers.name # ['Chris', 'Danny', 'John']
teenagers_names.take(2).except_for(lambda n: n == 'Danny') # ['Chris']
teenagers.age.min # 16
teenagers.age.avg # 17
teenagers.age.max # 18
