Dennis,
You make a good point, that is what I though first. Semantically I
thought a comma after **kw as in ..., **kw,) doesn't make sense because
there is nothing that could follow **kw except the ')'. But then trying
some other cases (see the previous posts for my examples) I noticed
that commas
Roman,
The way I see it, it could be either way. In other words if I can
write f(1,2,3) and f(1,2,3,) I should also be able to write
f(1,*[2,3],). It is a really small detail but there sould be some
consistency. Either no extra commas for all kinds of argument types or
extra commas for _all_ of t

Perhaps, someone can make a bug report... IMHO, docs are wrong.

True, that is why it behaves the way it does, but which way is the
correct way? i.e. does the code need updating or the documentation?

Roman,
According to the Python call syntax definition
(http://docs.python.org/ref/calls.html) commas should be allowed, so it
seems like a minor bug. Here are the lines in question:
-http://docs.python.org/ref/calls.html---

Hi!
it is interesting that I found this syntax error:
>>> a = {}
>>> str('sdfd', **a,)
File "", line 1
str('sdfd', **a,)

I just wonder is it intentional or by-product (bug or feature)?
(The behaviour makes sense, of course... I tend to leav
