David W. Lambert <lamber...@corning.com> added the comment: (As I recall) in python-dev mailing list Ray claimed he could clean up a cited active state recipe to address this issue. He succeeded to the extent I'm aware---he's the author of http://code.activestate.com/recipes/576685/.
I haven't used the redundant >, >= comparisons operators in code since 1981. The chances of simplifying python by removing them from the language are None, but the mistake predates python by 10**n years, where (3 <= n <= 7) or (7 >= n >= 3). ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue5479> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
