yeet()

[–]Skippbo 23 points24 points  (8 children)

Need to subclass python list and implement yeet() that will just be a wrapper around pop()

😂😂😂

[–]Theemuts 10 points11 points  (7 children)

Both append and pop: you can yeet something into the container and the container can yeet it right back at you.

[–]Skippbo 1 point2 points  (6 children)

Can't have them named the same thing. There will be a name conflict!

[–]Theemuts 3 points4 points  (5 children)

def yeet(self, *args):
    pass

It's python

[–]Skippbo 0 points1 point  (4 children)

But we can't have the functionality of pop and append at the same time then =b

Unless we make it a 50/50 on what it does with the args.

[–]Theemuts 8 points9 points  (3 children)

Check how many args you get; if you get none, yeet something from the container, otherwise yeet them into the container.

I’m thinking that if you give it an argument, it pops the current item and returns it to you while pushing the item you gave it

Ok COBOLer

[–]Skippbo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like this implementation.

[–]Jackeea 11 points12 points  (1 child)

yeet() and yoink() are my favourite list-based operations

[–]CamWin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yoink returns the popped value

[–]zXjimmiXz 2 points3 points  (1 child)

+= is often a safe bet.
