This is also why I propose an argument to choose the format: everyone has a different use case and use cases are incompatible. Tuples are quick to create but has not a practical API, datetime has a nice API but also issues listed before by Martin (and don't support nanosecond resolution currently), Decimal has a nice API but is expensive to create, etc. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue11457> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
