Lazily initialise python object through horrible __getattr__ hacks

Dangerous lazy object

class State:
    def __init__(self):
        pass

    def import_position(self):
        self.position = {x: x * x for x in range(10)}

    def __getattr__(self, s):
        try:
            return self.__getattribute__(s)
        except AttributeError:
            print("failure")
            self.__getattribute__('import_' + s)()
            return self.__getattribute__(s)


R = State()
print(R.position)
print(R.position)
