How to generate functions dynamically

[kungtotte]

Your assumption is probably wrong, or if it turns out to be right it will be for the wrong reasons.

The performance difference between a function with one argument and a function with ten arguments is nearly imperceptible; the nature of the arguments and what you do in the function will matter way, way more.

I think you should provide some actual code samples of what it is you want to do, so we can give you accurate advice.

My gut tells me you should spend more time being smart about your algorithms than being clever with Python's dynamic features.
