Question 1
What does the partial function do in functools?
- Creates a new function with some parameters fixed
- Caches function outputs
- Overloads functions based on type
💡 Hint: Think about how it can help reduce the number of parameters you need to pass.
Question 2

Challenge Problems
Push your limits with challenges.
Question 1
Construct a decorated Fibonacci function using lru_cache and analyze its performance compared to a non-cached version.
💡 Hint: Measure execution time for n = 35 and n = 40.
Question 2
Create a set of overloaded functions using singledispatch that handles three different data types in calculations. Provide examples of how each function works.
💡 Hint: Use @singledispatch for the main function and register for each type.
