Standard library map on bound function

Inizia con la riproduzione segnalata in test.py, concentrandoti sull’interazione tra returns.pointfree.bind, ResultE e il map integrato di Python. Confronta i tipi inferiti da mypy con il for funzionante e le alternative g esplicite; il lavoro è completato quando l’esempio originale map(bind(g), map(f, range(3))) supera il controllo dei tipi senza errori.

Bug report

Mypy does not appear to correctly handle the standard library map function over an iterable of containers that returns an iterable of containers, when the function being mapped over the data has had returns.pointfree.bind applied to it. The same code when used without map (by explicit use of a for-loop) or a bind (by explicitly handling a container input) will not result in an error.

What's wrong

Code to reproduce issue

from typing import Iterable

from returns.pointfree import bind
from returns.result import ResultE
from returns.result import safe


@safe
def f(x: int) -> str:
    return str(x)


@safe
def g(x: str) -> int:
    return int(x)


def h(xs: Iterable[ResultE[int]]) -> None:
    for x in xs:
        print(x.unwrap())


if __name__ == "__main__":
    h(map(bind(g), map(f, range(3))))

Mypy output

$ mypy test.py
test.py:24:11: error: Argument 1 to "map" has incompatible type "Kinded[Callable[[KindN[Result[Any, Any], str, Exception, NoReturn]], KindN[Result[Any, Any], int, Exception, NoReturn]]]"; expected "Callable[[Result[str, Exception]], Res

How it should be

When the h function is replaced with a for-loop in __main__ no issues are reported by Mypy and the code executes correctly:

if __name__ == "__main__":
    for x in map(f, range(3)):
        print(x.bind(g).unwrap())

Can also fix the issue by swapping out the g function:

def g(x: ResultE[str]) -> ResultE[int]:
    return x.map(int)

<snip>

if __name__ == "__main__":
    h(map(g, map(f, range(3))))
