New submission from Miguel Brito <miguel.mdebr...@gmail.com>:
Hi, I was playing around with Python's grammar and noticed that the error message for if expression is generic, so not very informative. I decided to improve it slightly. *From*: ``` >>> a = 42 if True File "<stdin>", line 1 a = 42 if True ^ SyntaxError: invalid syntax ``` *To*: ``` $ ./python Python 3.10.0b4 (tags/v3.10.0b4-dirty:2ba4b20854, Jul 31 2021, 11:50:15) [GCC 7.5.0] on linux Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> a = 42 if True File "<stdin>", line 1 a = 42 if True ^ SyntaxError: invalid syntax. Conditional expression expected an 'else' here. ``` ---------- messages: 398633 nosy: miguendes priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Improve syntax errors for invalid if expressions _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue44792> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
