Martin Panter added the comment: When I wrote the documentation <https://docs.python.org/dev/reference/lexical_analysis.html#f-strings>, I think I tried to avoid “f-string”, being jargon, and used more formal terminology from PEP 498 instead. But I agree they more than regular literals.
Serhiy do you have a link/message-id/etc of the Python-dev discussion? All I found with Google was <https://www.reddit.com/r/Python/comments/3k969r/lets_find_a_better_name_for_fstrings/>. One other goal is to differentiate these from other formatted strings, such as from str.format and percent formatting. * formatted strings (doesn’t differentiate from str.format, etc) * string interpolations * string expressions * string comprehensions (apparently too far removed from set comprehensions) * Maybe format(ted) string displays? (parallelling list etc displays) ---------- nosy: +martin.panter _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue29928> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
