When developing applications that have specific needs for running asynchronous tasks outside the web application, it is common to adopt a task queue such as Celery. This allows, for example, for the server to start an asynchronous task for heavyweight processing, and then return an answer.
This blog entry has two main goals. The first one is to help you understand what is function composition. In the second goal, we will deal with two of the best Python modules: operator and functools.
