Steven D'Aprano <st...@pearwood.info> added the comment:
Regarding the proposed syntax:
if (f() == 'spam') -> name:
newname = name.replace('p', 'h')
Surely that should assign the *bool* result of comparing f()
with 'spam' to name? Doing anything else is opening the door to a
world of pain.
if (f() == 'spam') -> name # binds name=f()
if ('spam' == f()) -> name # binds 'spam' to name?
if (f() == g()) -> name # binds what to name?
if (f() or g()) -> name # binds what to name?
