Using functools.partialmethod to Create Partial Methods

functools.partialmethod This function allows you to create a partial method of a class by pre-fixing some of the method's arguments. This is useful when you need to frequently call a class method with the same parameters, but want to avoid specifying them repeatedly.

🗣 In this example, partialmethod is used to create a method that pre-fixes part of the arguments, simplifying method calls.

from functools import partialmethod

class Greeter:
    def greet(self, name, greeting="Hello"):
        print(f"{greeting}, {name}!")

    greet_hello = partialmethod(greet, greeting="Hello")
    greet_hi = partialmethod(greet, greeting="Hi")

g = Greeter()
g.greet_hello("Alice") # Hello, Alice!
g.greet_hi("Bob")      # Hi, Bob!

✔️ This function makes the code more concise and flexible when working with class methods.
