Terry J. Reedy <tjre...@udel.edu> added the comment:
The augmented assignment symbol, like that for plain assignment, is not, properly speaking, an operator. But it definitely is a symbol that needs to be documented. 1. Generally update the help symbol list. 2. Document :=, assignment expression, in the regular docs, but I found nothing. ':=' should be on https://docs.python.org/3.8/genindex-Symbols.html just ':(colon)'. 'expression' should be listed under 'assignment on https://docs.python.org/3.8/genindex-A.html I think 'assignment' should be listed under 'expression' on https://docs.python.org/3.8/genindex-E.html I could not find anything in the expressions chapter. ---------- nosy: +terry.reedy title: Assignment expression operator (walrus) not in built-in help() -> Assignment expression symbol (walrus) not in built-in help() _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue37082> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
