A more generic solution for Classes which the only downside is that all parameters must be initialized with default values.

```auto
def MyClass:
    __init__ (self, a=None, b=None):
        self.a = a
        self.b = b

def get_class(class_, **kargs):
    return class_(**kargs)

```

Example:  
`my_class = get_state(get_class, class_=MyClass, a=a, b=b)`

@biellls thanks for so useful functions 😃
