I’ve been getting back into Python lately… I just wrote a small module that provides support for pointfree style programming with a combination of automatic partial function/method application and operator overloading for function composition:

>>> from pointfree import *
>>> from operator import add

>>> fn = pfmap(len) \
         >> pfmap(lambda n: n**2) \
         >> pfreduce(add, initial=0)

>>> fn(["foo", "barr", "bazzz"])
50

See the overview for a lengthier introduction. You can install the pointfree module from the Python Package Index:

$ pip install pointfree
