xitop <reg.b...@poti.sk> added the comment: While I do fully agree with not documenting all exceptions, I'd like to point out a major difference in the case of "unhashable in dict".
It differs from the general case where an exception means the function is unable to return a meaningful result, beacuse it easily COULD return False as its documentation states. The exception is raised by a design decision, not by necessity. That makes it special. A single sentence like "A hashable key is precondition of all dict operations." would explain the behaviour well. That's all I wanted to say. Thank you. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue32899> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
