Hello all!
There is a class Calendar in calendar.py in standard libriary. class Calendar(object): """ Base calendar class. This class doesn't do any formatting. It simply provides data to subclasses. """ def __init__(self, firstweekday=0): self.firstweekday = firstweekday # 0 = Monday, 6 = Sunday def getfirstweekday(self): return self._firstweekday % 7 def setfirstweekday(self, firstweekday): self._firstweekday = firstweekday firstweekday = property(getfirstweekday, setfirstweekday) As far as I understand, even if user enters inappropriate firstweekday parameter (bigger than 6) during instansiation of the Calendar, the Calendar swallows it (and latter returns correct firstweekday value due to %7 in getfirstweekday method). So, the question is why not explicitly raise ValueError if user enters the firstweekday parameter bigger that 6 (with accordance with the Zen). Am I missing something? Thank you in advance Best regards, Aynur С уважением, А.И.
