The patch uses new feature of 3.6 -- supporting positional-only parameters in PyArg_ParseTupleAndKeywords() (see issue26282). Since passing an iterable as a keyword argument never worked, it is safe to make the first parameter positional-only. Actually I think that argument parsing code of sorted() and list.sort() can be simplified, but this is separate issue. I tried to make the bugfix patch simple. ---------- title: SystemError or crash in sorted(iterable=[]) -> SystemError or crash in sorted(iterable= _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue29327> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
