[Visualpython-users] passing functions to functions

[Joe H. <hea...@gm...>]

Can a function be passed as a parameter to another function in Python? I
can't find any clear examples.

Hi, 

With python its often easier to just test than to find documentation.
Regards,


def regularCase(arg):
    return arg
    
def upCase(arg):
    return arg.upper()
        
def do(func, arg):
    return(func(arg))
    
print do(regularCase, 'hello')
print do(upCase, 'hello')

.....

hello
HELLO

def add(a,b):
     return a+b

def mult(a,b):
     return a*b

def process(function, a, b):
     return function(a,b)

print process(mult, 5, 3) # prints 15
