Introduction

frozenlist.FrozenList is a list-like structure which implements collections.abc.MutableSequence. The list is mutable until FrozenList.freeze is called, after which list modifications raise RuntimeError:

from frozenlist import FrozenList fl = FrozenList([17, 42]) fl.append('spam') fl.append('Vikings') fl ", line 1, in File "frozenlist/frozenlist.pyx", line 97, in frozenlist.frozenlist.FrozenList.append self.checkfrozen() File "frozenlist/frozenlist.pyx", line 19, in frozenlist.frozenlist.FrozenList.checkfrozen raise RuntimeError("Cannot modify frozen list.") RuntimeError: Cannot modify frozen list.

FrozenList is also hashable, but only when frozen. Otherwise it also throws a RuntimeError:

fl = FrozenList([17, 42, 'spam']) hash(fl) Traceback (most recent call last): File "", line 1, in File "frozenlist/frozenlist.pyx", line 111, in frozenlist.frozenlist.FrozenList.hash raise RuntimeError("Cannot hash unfrozen list.") RuntimeError: Cannot hash unfrozen list. fl.freeze() hash(fl) 3713081631934410656 dictionary = {fl: 'Vikings'} # frozen fl can be a dict key dictionary {
