Object-Oriented Python Using functools.partial

Thunder Talk

In Python, everything is an object -- ints, bools, classes, and, yes even functions. This has many benefits, but it also allows us to write un-Pythonic code that is hard to follow.

This talk will demonstrate HOWTO design Object-Oriented solutions using only functions, built-in data structures, and the standard library.

After this talk, attendees will have a better understanding of how Python classes function behind the scenes.
