New submission from David Halter: The following lines run infinitely:
b = [1] import itertools b += itertools.chain.from_iterable([c] for c in b) In my opinion this is a bug. Clearly you could say that this is an implementation detail. But afaik this is not documented and very misleading. BTW: In PyPy b would be [1, 1]. ---------- messages: 178296 nosy: davidhalter priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: itertools.chain.from_iterable doesn't stop type: behavior versions: Python 2.7, Python 3.2, Python 3.3 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue16791> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
