This has been rejected before. The core issue is that it is not a very useful operation because it consumes the iterator. Also, this isn't an operation worth optimizing because most iterators that do something interesting are already slower than a genexp inside a sum(). ---------- nosy: +rhettinger _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue9547> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
