Larry Hastings added the comment: Well, they're going to have to change somehow, because the concepts of "left" and "right" are going away (see #20303). However, your suggested new name for these functions would be awful for large groups. Consider curses.window.overlay:
window.overlay(destwin[, sminrow, smincol, dminrow, dmincol, dmaxrow, dmaxcol]) Your algorithm would generate the name "use_destwin_sminrow_smincol_dminrow_dmincol_dmaxrow_dmaxcol". I suggest instead: remap the names to less-confusing names in your impl function. Compiler optimization will make the redundant name disappear, so it will have no run-time cost. ---------- resolution: -> wont fix stage: needs patch -> committed/rejected status: open -> closed _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue20302> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
