With these you can't move a resource inside the property.

Python has an overload for removing properties. In all my years of
using Python, I've *NEVER* once had a use for it, or even worked
out why I'd want to use it.
I'm not saying we shouldn't be able to do this, I just can't see
the need for move/remove for properties; where would this be
useful?
Does Python have complex value types?
Sean
You mean these?
(1+2j) * (2+3j)
(-4+7j)
Don't ask me why they used 'j' instead of 'i'. :P
If you mean aggregate types that have value semantics, then no.

Using j instead of i is pretty common in electrical engineering
circles. i means current when dealing with circuits, and complex
numbers are used all over the place to make the math easier when doing
circuit stuff, so by convention j is used instead of i to denote
imaginary numbers.
Right, the 'j' notation is used in the representation of phasors in ac circuit
analysis. If I remember correctly, 'i' , usually represented as a function
of time, is the changing current (like in a sinusoidal waveform)... and 'I'
is the instantaneous current. I used to do a lot of phasor calculation practice.
