Never will, either -- even Roman numeral literals are more Pythonic than this one. More Pythonic: make integers callable: i(arglist) returns the i'th argument. So, e.g., people who find it inconvenient to index a list like this: x[i] could index it like this instead: i(*x) Punchline: I didn't make this up -- that's how integers work in Icon! Kinda. y := 2 y(x, y, z) := 3 also works to bind `y` to 3. Python is falling _way_ behind <wink>. _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
