I DO expect this thread to be bombarded with negative replies.
Currently, there are `in`/`not in` operators which work like this in Python: > def contains(contains_value, iterable, not_in): > for element in iterable: > if element == contains_value: > return True ^ not_in > return False ^ not_in If I wanted to check if an *exact* object is in an iterable, I would have to loop like this (reverse boolean values for implementation of `not is in`): > is_in = False > for element in iterable: > if element is contains_value: > is_in = True I would want a more *convenient* way to check for this value. So therefore, there should be `is in`/`not is in` operators to do it better. Is this a valid reason? _______________________________________________ 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/M2ZW37MM4C32ACY5CXTRDSKVGVC3ROBX/ Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
