Question

What’s the best way to pass a method and a method parameter to another method?

Is there a better way to do the following?

def method1(name)     return 'Hello ' + name  def method2(methodToCall, methodToCallParams, question):     greetings = methodToCall(methodToCallParams)     return greetings + ', ' + question  method2(method1, 'Sam', 'How are you?') 

Answer 1

You could do it this way:

def method1(name):     def wrapper():         return 'Hello ' + name     return wrapper  def method2(method, question):     output = method()     return output + ', ' + question  method2(method1(name = 'Sam'), 'How are you?') 

You can of course pass some variables in the method() call too:

def method1(name):     def wrapper(greeting):         return greeting + name     return wrapper  def method2(method, question):     output = method(greeting = 'Hello ')     return output + ', ' + question  method2(method1(name = 'Sam'), 'How are you?')
