I disagree: I think the second is more readable, and I think it's especially helpful to those not intimately familiar with the language (which probably accounts for the vast majority of Python users) to see code like "s.expandtabs(tabsize=3)", or "int(43, base=8)", or "s.splitlines(keepends=True)": such code is instantly understandable, whereas someone seeing "s.splitlines(True)" likely has to stop and wonder what the "True" is doing. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue17806> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
