Can you use map to create instances without a wrapper?

Question

In Python, you can give the name of a class as an argument to map in order to create instances of that class:

class Point(object):
    def __init__(         


        

Answer 1

I think your conclusion is correct: init isn't being treated as a conventional func. You might want to report this as a bug; I'm not sure if this is intended behavior or not.

BTW, a more concise way to achieve what you want is:

coords.map{ p => Point(x: p[0], y: p[1]) }
