Re: [Python-ideas] Allow multiple imports from a package while preserving its namespace

I just ran into a similar problem, how to relatively import without binding the submodule. Let's say you have this : myapp/ urls.py views/ base.py When you're in urls.py and you want to relatively access Functions from base.py, you must use the from syntax. from .views import

There are two ‘AA’ in ‘AAA’, one starting from 0 and the other starting from 1. If ‘AA’ starting from 0 is deleted and inserted with ‘BANAN’, ‘AAA’ becomes ‘BANANA ‘. If ‘AA’ starting from 1 is deleted and inserted with ‘PPLE’, ‘AAA’ becomes ‘APPLE’. Depending on which one is chosen, ‘AAA’

That's the kind of thing I'm looking for. I've dealt with some library authors who were highly against importing the root allowing me to access submodules with hierarchy. On Thu, Apr 26, 2018 at 9:51 AM Nick Coghlan wrote: > On 26 April 2018 at 23:37, Paul Moore

[Python-ideas] Allow multiple imports from a package while preserving its namespace

I personally would like a feature where instead of doing `from ... import ...` (which imports the specified items into the current namespace), one could use something along the lines of `import .{ , , ... }` such that the imported modules/attributes could be accessed as `.`, etc. -- Thanks,

or build it yourself... def str_count(string, sub): c = 0 for c in range(len(string)-len(sub)): if string[c:].startswith(sub): c += 1 return c (probably some optimizations possible...) Or in one line with a generator expression: def str_count(string, sub): return

I'm kind of curious why everyone here seems to want to use IntFlags and other mixins. The docs themselves say that their use should be minimized, and tbh I agree with them. Backwards compatiblity can be maintained by allowing the old value and internally converting it to the enum. Combinability is

Re: [Python-ideas] Change magic strings to enums

Even if not just for the autocompletion, it would be more explicit that it's not just a random string like you'd pass to print(), but it has a specific meaning. Something in PEP 20 about explicit and implicit ? Autocompletion might be a good advantage, but 1) the IDE would need to know what to
