#parameter and return a function
def logging(f):
  def decorator_function(*args, **kwargs):
    print('executing '+f.__name__)
    return f(*args, **kwargs)

#Use it like this
@logging
def hello_world():

#calling hello_world() prints out:
#executing hello_world
#Hello World

python decorators

# decorators are user to decorate functions like what to do before/after calling the function
import time

def delay_decorator(function):
    def wrapper_function():
        print("-----------------------I am gonna greet you--------------------------")
        time.sleep(2)# waits for 2 seconds
        function()   # calls the function
        time.sleep(1)# waits for 1 sec
        print("------------------How do you feel about that greet?-------------------")
    return wrapper_function

@delay_decorator
def greet():
    print("Helllllloooooooooo")

greet()

python decorator

# Decorator with arguments
import functools

# First function takes the wanted number of repetition
def repeat(num_times):
    # Second function takes the function
    def decorator_repeat(func):
        # Third function, the wrapper executes the function the number of times wanted        
        # functools decorator to print the true name of the function passed instead of "wrapper"
        @functools.wraps(func)
        def wrapper(*args, **kwargs):
            for _ in range(num_times):
                result= func(*args, **kwargs)
            return result
        return wrapper
    return decorator_repeat

# Our function using the decorator
@repeat(num_times= 3)
def greet(name):
    print(f"Hello {name}")

greet("thomas")
