在函数内定义类是否可接受?

在Matplotlib的文档中有一个创建雷达图的例子,我正在尝试理解这个设计。 http://matplotlib.org/examples/api/radar_chart.html

"""
Example of creating a radar chart (a.k.a. a spider or star chart) [1]_.

Although this example allows a frame of either 'circle' or 'polygon', polygon
frames don't have proper gridlines (the lines are circles instead of polygons).
It's possible to get a polygon grid by setting GRIDLINE_INTERPOLATION_STEPS in
matplotlib.axis to the desired number of vertices, but the orientation of the
polygon is not aligned with the radial axes.

这种模式的基本原理是什么?

答案 0 :(得分:1)

这是一种可接受的模式,在需要动态创建的类时使用。例如,在类装饰器中,装饰器函数动态创建装饰类并返回它。

此处行register_projection(RadarAxes)是该模式的原因。我不习惯matplotlib,但我认为register_projection在此作为参数PolarAxes的子类。该子类由函数使用函数参数动态创建。

该语言允许动态创建类,这是动态创建类的用例,因此在函数中创建类没有问题。
