Duh, forgot to mention. I wouldn't have it return anything. Ternary returns something because you have two options and picks one. This is conditional execution of a statement. I guess it would be a statement, like normal if. I guess cond and do_something would be equivalent, but that's not really the intention of and/or, no matter how much it's used for this sort of thing. Disclaimer: I don't really expect this to be accepted. It's more of a minor gripe i've occasionally had. This afternoon, I wrote: if not article["art_wt"]: article["art_wt"] = 0 if not article["px_pchs"]: article["px_pchs"] = 0 if not article["px_calc"]: article["px_calc"] = 0 if not article["px_sell"]: article["px_sell"] = 0 while preparing a dict for import in accountview. I try not to make a habit of dismissing syntax warnings. I consider the code above abundantly clear (no, I dont know what those keys mean. Since I have no power over that, I dont consider it detrimental to clarity.) _______________________________________________ Python-ideas mailing list Python-ideas@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-ideas Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
