I don't see a justification for baking REs into the syntax of Python.
In the Python world, REs are just one tool in a toolbox containing a great many tools. What's more, it's a tool that should be used with considerable reluctance, because REs are essentially unreadable, so every time you use one you're creating a maintenance headache. This quality is quite the opposite of what one would expect from a core language feature. -- 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/
