What we have now: def f(a, b, *args, **dict(c=1)): # Yuck! What we really need: def f(a, b, *args, **, c=1): # Two stars spell dictionary.
What I heard was planned instead: def f(a, b, *args, *, c=1): # One star spells iterable. Two stars make a nice visual separator. One star following *args just looks funny, Raymond P.S. I would actually like to see this in Py2.6. It doesn't conflict with anything else and solves an annoying problem. _______________________________________________ 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
