Terry J. Reedy added the comment: Serhiy, about your 'huge patch' to modernize code:
I am more positive than some because: 1) To me, a one-time gentile change is not 'churning'. 2) As we link to many, most, or even all python-coded stdlib modules (I think there is a proposal for 'all'), there is more benefit to using modern idioms. On the other hand, 'huge' patches can be too much to discuss, justify, and review all at once. Using {.. } for sets consistently is a nice-sized chunk to consider. We can identify, discuss, and decide on each sub-case (I have identified 4 so far). It has the additional benefit of being a performance enhancement. --- 'set((...' is used in distutils (which I will not change) and in many tests. So that is not an issue. 'frozenset((' is used 5 times in regular module code. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue22823> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
