We've had many discussions in the past about PEP 335 and they always ended in non-action. I'm cutting any future discussions short and officially rejecting the PEP. Amongst other reasons, I really dislike that the PEP adds to the bytecode for all uses of these operators even though almost no call sites will ever need the feature.
PS. The NumPy folks brought up a somewhat separate issue: for them, the most common use case is chained comparisons (e.g. A < B < C). If someone wants to propose a PEP that makes this case overloadable I might be amenable to accepting it, since chained comparisons are used much less frequently than the and/or operators. -- --Guido van Rossum (python.org/~guido) _______________________________________________ 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
