This is certainly the right place to discuss this, but you shouldn't assume that everyone reading will know what powerset functionality you are referring to. Is it the same as the recipe in the itertools documentation? https://docs.python.org/3/library/itertools.html#itertools-recipes Can you make a case for why it is important and useful enough to be put into the std lib? Every new function increases the burden on both the Python developers maintaining the stdlib, and new users learning to use the language. So you need to make a case for why the benefit outweighs the costs. -- Steve _______________________________________________ Python-ideas mailing list Python-ideas@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-ideas Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
