It has no runtime dependencies and is designed for developers who want a more direct, list-returning interface to these operations rather than working with iterators or generator expressions.\n\nThe package is dormant (last release 2024-08-14) and carries a GPLv3 copyleft license. It supports Python >=3.8. Use it when you need quick, readable functional transformations on sequences and prefer explicit function calls over chained comprehensions or itertools.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you work frequently with sequences and prefer explicit, readable functional calls over comprehensions or itertools\u2014and if you accept GPLv3 licensing. No, if you need active maintenance, comprehensive documentation, or proprietary-compatible licensing. The high install friction and dormant status suggest it is stable but not under active development."},"id":"lmz","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/lmz","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/lmz.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/lmz/"},"maintenance":{"status":"dormant"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2024-08-14","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"copyleft","name":"lmz","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"small functions that should be part of python3, supplementing generator functions"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":83668,"position":14056,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"0.1.20"}
