New submission from Pablo Galindo Salgado <pablog...@gmail.com>:
Let's asume this string: " x = "Cannot recover from "MemoryErrors" while something happnes while " The line is incorrect because the quotes arround MemoryErrors are the same as the string is used, resulting in STRING + expression + STRING. Currenly we say: >>> 'Cannot recover from 'MemoryErrors' while ' File "<stdin>", line 1 'Cannot recover from 'MemoryErrors' while ' ^ SyntaxError: invalid syntax but I think it will be a great improvement if we say: >>> 'Cannot recover from 'MemoryErrors' while ' File "<stdin>", line 1 'Cannot recover from 'MemoryErrors' while ' ^^^^^^^^^^^^ SyntaxError: invalid syntax. Did you use the same quotes here as the string? Probably the message should be better, but I think this is a good improvement. ---------- components: Parser messages: 395476 nosy: lys.nikolaou, pablogsal priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Improve syntax error for wrongly closed strings versions: Python 3.10, Python 3.11 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue44369> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
