Python's convention is less extreme than this, since it only applies to methods that, under the conventions of some other languages, would return self to facilitate chaining. There's no rule against a mutating method returning some other value if that's convenient. -- Greg _______________________________________________ Python-ideas mailing list Python-ideas@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-ideas Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
