Idea: introduce a "local" pseudo-function to capture the idea of initialized names with limited scope.
Note: the thing I'm most interested in isn't debates, but in whether this would be of real use in real code.
I keep going back and forth on the ":=" syntax as on the one hand I find the functionality very useful but on the other hand it's ugly and doesn't really read well.
However, I can say I am solidly -1 on local, let, etc.: - local() vs locals(): very similar words with disparate meanings - more parens -- ugh - sublocal: one more scope for extra complexity -- ~Ethan~ _______________________________________________ Python-ideas mailing list Python-ideas@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-ideas Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
