This would make it *more* difficult to distinguish constants from assignment targets when looking at the match statement, unless you choose names which "look constant-like" somehow. It also has the general problem of const-declarations in Python. Currently the compiler only has to analyse one module at a time; this would require it to also look inside imported modules to determine whether things were declared const. -- Greg _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list -- python-dev@python.org To unsubscribe send an email to python-dev-le...@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman3/lists/python-dev.python.org/ Message archived at https://mail.python.org/archives/list/python-dev@python.org/message/ACJJV65BQNZ2LMNUBGJJLBR7AI3EO4SU/ Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
