I saw this to, and do want to throw in my two cents that it should be consistent between them. We should not add something to one and not the other. If the PEP, even if its rejected, doesn't change to reflect that its suggestion is for both generator expressions and list comprehensions, I think it should be considered invalid from the start. We should never add syntax that makes list(<...>) != [<...>] (where <...> is my stupid expression placeholder). > Vitor > > > ¡Todo sobre la Liga Mexicana de fútbol!
