New submission from John Potelle: >From v3.4 Tutorial section 5.7
It is possible to assign the result of a comparison or other Boolean expression to a variable. For example, >>> string1, string2, string3 = '', 'Trondheim', 'Hammer Dance' >>> string1 or string2 or string3 'Trondheim' >>> bool(string1 or string2 or string3) True In most languages a Boolean clause (comparison) returns a Boolean or it's equivalent, not the last argument evaluated. Please add a reference to bool function (or some better? method) in this section for clarification. ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation messages: 233330 nosy: docs@python, jpotelle priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Clarify Boolean Clause Results type: enhancement versions: Python 3.4 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue23153> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
