Eric V. Smith added the comment: What are the use cases where json.loads would be called on the return from json.loads?
It seems to me a better design would be to wrap such calls with a test, instead of having json.loads do this test. Hiding it in json.loads would mask other programming errors, for instance if you pass an unrelated dict to json.loads. ---------- nosy: +eric.smith versions: -Python 2.7, Python 3.2, Python 3.3, Python 3.4, Python 3.5 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue24387> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
