I would argue the opposite - the use of "is" shows a clear knowledge that True and False are each a singleton and the author explicitly intended to use them that way.
I don't think you can infer that. It could equally well be someone who's *not* familiar with Python truth rules and really just meant "if x". Or someone who's unfamiliar with booleans in general and thinks that every "if" statement has to have a comparison in it. -- 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/
