`sidekick.functions`¶

The functions in this module are responsible for creating, transforming, composing and introspecting other functions. Some of those functions might be familiar from the standard lib’s functools module. In spite of those similarities, this module is not a drop-in replacement of the standard lib’s functools module.

This module also exposes the fn type, that extends standard Python functions with new methods and operators. This extended function behavior is applied to most sidekick’s functions and can be easily re-used to extend user code.
