Serhiy Storchaka <storchaka+cpyt...@gmail.com> added the comment: This is a consequence of duck-typing and is common in Python. If you pass a value of wrong type, it is expected that you can get an AttributeError.
Explicit type checks clutter and slow down the code, and make it less flexible. You can test an explicit type before calling uuid.UUID() in your code if you need. ---------- nosy: +serhiy.storchaka resolution: -> not a bug stage: -> resolved status: open -> closed _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue31888> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
