Hmm, It does make you wonder if using the presence of an annotation to indicate a field was a good choice -- but here we are.
Additionally one could consider adding an `attribute` typing construct, > such that `attr0: attribute[int]` would mark it as a non-field attribute. > Better yet, a dataclasses.attribute object that would indicate that: from dataclasses import dataclass, field, attribute @dataclass class C: x: int = 0 mylist: list[int] = field(default_factory=list) y: int = attribute(value=0) x and mylist are fields, y is not. y would get set to the value specified. Then the type annotation is left unadulterated -- much easier for the type checkers. -CHB -- Christopher Barker, PhD (Chris) Python Language Consulting - Teaching - Scientific Software Development - Desktop GUI and Web Development - wxPython, numpy, scipy, Cython
