Paddy McCarthy added the comment: Hmmm. It seems that the problem isn't to do with the fact that it works, or how to apply it; the problem is with *how* it works.
Making it an idiom means that too many will use it without knowing why it works which could lead to later maintenance issues. I think a better description of how it works may be needed for the docs. Unfortunately my description of the how at http://paddy3118.blogspot.co.uk/2012/12/that-grouping-by-zipiter-trick-explained.html was not written with the docs in mind, but you are welcome to any part or the whole, for the Python docs. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue23695> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
