(Also the error message is different in 3.8.) > It was annoying that I didn't know which `__init__` method was under > discussion. Couldn't you tell from the stacktrace showing the failed line of code? I don't know about this. While I can certainly see that there are circumstances where it might be useful (e.g. you're running a .pyc file and there's no source line available), I think that in the majority of the cases showing fully-qualified names would be more annoying than useful, and certainly more intimidating to beginners. ---------- nosy: +steven.daprano _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue39212> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
