I also think it's fair to at least reconsider adding inline assignment, with
the "traditional" semantics (possibly with mandatory parentheses). This
would be easier to learn and understand for people who are familiar with it
from other languages (C++, Java, JavaScript).
Thank you; both of these have now been incorporated into the document.
I'm certainly hoping PEP 572 is rejected so we can have a follow-up PEP that only deals with the
assignment-as-expression portion.
No offense intended, Chris! :) In fact, maybe you could write that one too, and then have an accepted PEP to your
name? ;)
