I always suspected you were right about functional python, but stuff like this is pretty cool:

any((line.startswith('crawl') for line in open('file.txt')))

less code, less bugs, moar monies, still no need to learn ruby.

pure functions ftw

I'm not a great coder, but reading SICP def upped my game. After working through the first few chapters, I've rarely defined a function that depends on the program's state (a given input produces the same output everytime).

I need to dig into Python's functional tools more, but I do love me some list comprehensions.

you late brah, I've been doing this with PHP since 2003

writing this quick to GetItWorking (TM), but feels really inelegant, any suggestions?

        for line in page_content.split('\n'):
            line = line.strip()
            if len(line) and len(line.split(',') == 2) and line.split(',')[0].strip() in anchor_data:
                anchor_data[line.split(',')[0].strip()] = int(line.split(',')[1])

len(line.split(',') == 2), wut.

 

[Jake232]

dict(map(lambda line: [line.strip().split(',')[0], int(line.strip().split(',')[1])], filter(lambda line: len(line.strip()) and len(line.strip().split(',')) == 2 and line.strip().split(',')[0].strip() in anchor_data, page_content.split('\n'))))

Problem?
