partialfunction
allow one to derive a function with x parameters to a function with fewer 
parameters and fixed values set for the more limited function.

from functools import partial
  
# A normal function
def f(a, b, c, x):
    return 1000*a + 100*b + 10*c + x
  
# A partial function that calls f with
# a as 3, b as 1 and c as 4.
g = partial(f, 3, 1, 4)
  
# Calling g()
print(g(5))

how to create partial functions

Comment

"""
Partial functions allow us to fix a certain number of arguments 
of a function and generate a new function.

Partial functions can be used to derive specialized functions from 
general functions and therefore help us to reuse our code.
"""
from functools import partial
  
# A normal function
def f(a, b, c, x):
    return 1000*a + 100*b + 10*c + x
  
# A partial function that calls f with
# a as 3, b as 1 and c as 4.
g = partial(f, 3, 1, 4)
  
# Calling g()
print(g(5))
