For both generator, list and set comprehensions it makes sense, I think. For dict comprehensions: not so much. That in itself is already sign enough that probably the */** spelling would make more sense, while also allowing the `yield *foo` alternative to `yield from foo`. But what would be the meaning of `yield **foo`? Would that be `yield *foo.items()`? I have no idea. _______________________________________________ Python-ideas mailing list Python-ideas@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-ideas Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
