I was using +cytoolz just to speedup my Python code - with cytoolz code becomes both shorter +and faster. + +[cy]toolz.curried is nice; it allows to write e.g. + +>>> from cytoolz.curried import compose, map, unique +>>> compose(unique, map(unicode.strip)) + +making MapCompose unnecessary - function can be made working on a sequence +by creating a curried map.
