minor bikeshed: I've always considered the "r" in these to mean "reverse", not "right". more serious issue: method pairs like this generally use the main version *first* and only use the reversed version if the main one returns NotImplemented (not, as your post goes on to say, raises NotImplementedError. if all candidates return NotImplemented, the operator raises TypeError). If this is to consider the left-hand operand the primary authority, it might be better to simply name the method __in__. _______________________________________________ Python-ideas mailing list -- python-ideas@python.org To unsubscribe send an email to python-ideas-le...@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman3/lists/python-ideas.python.org/ Message archived at https://mail.python.org/archives/list/python-ideas@python.org/message/WWW2BIWHPFN5L5DOATLBS37OFW7GVTKQ/ Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
