decorators

[mp3909]

From the way you describe it, your decorator will not care what the function it's decorating does. Am I correct in saying what you actually want is a decorator which multiplies the first argument by a value provided to the decorator, before calling the decorated function

- YES!

I have got this far in terms of trying to achieve it:

def primer(func, z):
  def wrapper(*args,**kwargs):
    # I need to multiply the first argument by z so something like arg=arg*z before I pass this argument into the function in next line
    return func(*args, **kwargs)
  return wrapper
  
@primer
def add(first, second):
  return first+second
