Thread 105740574

i wanted to write poetry in python so i turned 460,000 english words into lambda functions. see picrel

now(i(can(write(like(this)))))

>>105740574 (OP)
whoops those aren't lambda functions lmao my bad

i knew that

Why would you do this?

>>105740685
why(not(that(is(the(power(of(lambda))))))))

nah, m8, you're fine, there are much worse cases.

You're not autistic, you're just retarded.

not only that you would stilll need to pass an arg to the function that gets evaluated first.

>>105740574 (OP)
not very much desu. if you want to be peak autism you would do it in assembly

>>105740685
Brion Gysin made poetry with programming. So why not OP? He could do it all again in Haskell, mess around with `flip`, $, and . and thus generate novel permutations

>>105740756
oh i just use a blank string for the last argument

>>105740729
because(poetry(is_(cool(''))))

what? you've never been kicked by a habit that you're trying to kick?

>>105740574 (OP)
why don't you just write in lisp instead?

>>105740574 (OP)
Neat but why not use lisp?

>>105740574 (OP)
anon you know you can you dynamically define a function for each word at runtime, instead of actually writing each definition in a file

>>105742954
This

```python
import __main__

with open('/usr/share/dict/words') as f:
words = f.read().split('\n')

print_ = print

for w in words:
__main__.__dict__[w] = (
lambda w = w:
lambda s = '': f'{w} {s}'
)(w)

print_(hello(world(good(bye()))))
```

>>105743006
Woops

import __main__

with open('/usr/share/dict/words') as f:
words = f.read().split('\n')

print_ = print

for w in words:
__main__.__dict__[w] = (
lambda w = w:
lambda s = '': f'{w} {s}'
)(w)

print_(hello(world(good(bye()))))

>>105740574 (OP)
>he didn't use lisp for this
sigh.

>>105740574 (OP)

The brackets are ugly.

```
class PoetryWriter(object):

def __init__(self):
self.all_words = []

def __getattr__(self, item):
if '_' in item:
item = item.replace('_', '')
self.all_words.append(item)
return self

def __enter__(self):
return self

def __exit__(self, exc_type, exc_val, exc_tb):
print(' '.join(self.all_words))

poetry_writer = PoetryWriter()

with poetry_writer as _:
_.in_.the.garden.of.error.you.prune.the.right.flowers.yet.plant.the.wrong.seeds._. \
In.the.ballet.of.folly.you.pirouette.with_.grace.but.always.step.on.your.partners.toes
```

in the garden of error you prune the right flowers yet plant the wrong seeds In the ballet of folly you pirouette with grace but always step on your partners toes

Someone tell me how to do code blocks i am retarded in a different way.

>>105740694
how do you handle "()" in text then?

>>105743434
Ctrl+W

kill yourselves you wastes of oxygen

>>105743519
shut up fagget

>>105740694
Just learn Scala. You would be able to write like this:

why not that is the power of lambda

>>105740574 (OP)
A smarter impl would have some sort of meta-function that, on occurrence of an undefined function, defines a generic function that concatenates the function name with its input.
But cool idea anyway. I think.

Lua can do this easily (not pictured: workaround for already defined globals/keywords).
setmetatable(_G, { __index = function(_, k)
return function(s)
return k .. " " .. (s or "")
end
end })

print(now(you(can(write(like(this(too())))))))

Why would you use poetry when it's been deprecated by uv, which is written in rust

>>105740574 (OP)
that's embarrassing. you could have just used reflection.

>>105743928
It would only save me an average of one second a month at most (it made no difference in CI according to my tests, but YMMV). That's worth it to not have the Rust "community" opinions infesting the system.
