Hi all, I wanted to canvas your opinion about something.
Currently, if you have a print statement with brackets in Python2, pylint will raise a comment C0325. This is suppressed if "from __future__ import print_statement" is used. My question is whether or not using print statements with parentheses in python2 should result in a warning. This was brought up as a bug for prospector (see here: https://github.com/landscapeio/prospector/issues/11) and I'm not sure what to decide. On the one hand, without the explicit print function import, the parentheses are superfluous. On the other hand, it is a valid way of making code 2 and 3 compatible. My own thoughts are that the correct way of ensuring Python 2 and 3 compatibility is to use the 'from __future__' import, however that's not compatible with 2.5 and lower. Any thoughts or comments here? Cheers, Carl _______________________________________________ code-quality mailing list code-quality@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/code-quality
