  • Modern Pandas (Part 2): Method Chaining
    5 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 1 May 2022
    You don't need pandas to do chaining. It's a one-liner in pure python: https://github.com/tpapastylianou/chain-ops-python

    Not to mention, it's a lot more debuggable this way (which is generally the biggest downside to most specialised chaining approaches).

  • More Intuitive Partial Function Application in Python

    This is great. I will use it with my python chaining approach: https://github.com/tpapastylianou/chain-ops-python

    My only grief is that decorator, which forces you to wrap existing functions anyway (same way I had to define lambdas in my example anyway).

    Do you have any insight on that?
