Ben Finney added the comment: The current wording of the passage “Match objects always have a boolean value of True” implies that the value compares equal to the ‘True’ constant. That implication is incorrect.
I disagree with R. David Murray; if we want to say that a value is considered true *in a boolean context*, that's very different from saying it has the “True” value. Georg, “evaluates true in a boolean context” has the meaning you're seeking; it is chosen precisely because it does *not* imply equality to the True constant. ---------- nosy: +bignose _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue22843> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
