category: Python requires: sdesc: "Python simple generic functions module" ldesc: "The simplegeneric module lets you define simple single-dispatch generic functions, akin to Python's built-in generic functions like len(), iter() and so on. However, instead of using specially-named methods, these generic functions use simple lookup tables, akin to those used by e.g. pickle.dump() and other generic functions found in the Python standard library." external-source: python-simplegeneric
