Hey,
I think you could use lambda functions for that matter (Ever heard of
them?). You could write something like:
def generate_html_tag_function(tag_name, start_or_end):
start_or_end.lower()
assert(start_or_end in ('start', 'end'))
if start_or_end == 'start':
function = lambda: '<' + tag_name + '>'
else:
function = lambda: '</' + tag_name + '>'
return function
Then you would create the functions using the same code you had
written before:
start_html = generate_html_tag_function('html', 'start')
start_body = generate_html_tag_function('body', 'start')
end_html = generate_html_tag_function('html', 'end')
end_body = generate_html_tag_function('body', 'end')
That seems to do what you want.
