I'm sorry if this has been discussed before. One of the things that is really nice about slice syntax is the ability to construct slice objects to pass to __getitem__ using []
Would it be possible to extend the syntax so that slice syntax is acceptable in more places in Python? In particular function calls would be a very useful addition. Thus, myfunc(3:4:0.5, 1:5) would produce the equivalent bytecode as myfunc(slice(3,4,0.5), slice(1,5)) -Travis _______________________________________________ Python-3000 mailing list Python-3000@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-3000 Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-3000/archive%40mail-archive.com
