mapjoin 0.0.3.dev1

But … why ?

Initially, because I make to many mistakes when I write an os.path.join call and then a str.join call in a row:

>>> os.path.join('a', 'b')
'a/b'

# and 2 seconds later i'm doing this:

>>> ' '.join('a', 'b')
TypeError: join() takes exactly one argument (2 given)

# and instead of "just fixit and move on", i decided have a take on join

But also because I can’t get no satisfaction with my code when it looks like:

readable = ' '.join(map(str, [
    'hello',
    f'__{name}__',
    something,
]))

# or:

def foo():
    readable = textwrap.dedent(f'''
    hello
    __{name}__
    ''').strip()
