No. "iloc" sounds like a new Apple product to keep strangers out of your home, or maybe something to do with iterators. Both slicing and "[list,]" arguments can be easily performed using a comprehension. I have no idea what calling it with a callable or bitmask is intended to do, or why they would be useful, but bitmasks are usually ints, so how would it distinguish between the item at index 3 and the item with bitmask 3? Is there a use-case for retrieving the insertion position of a key, or are we just adding it because we can? -- Steven _______________________________________________ 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/XWQZD45EE6MY2NKV3UYN7GZXYMYZPO2E/ Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
