Serhiy Storchaka added the comment: What if implement the bahavior described by Raymond for index -len(d) <= i < len(d), but raise an exception if the index is out of this range?
The result of deque('abc', maxlen=3).insert(i, 'X') would be: -4: error -3: ['X', 'a', 'b'] -2: ['a', 'X', 'b'] -1: ['a', 'b', 'X'] 0: ['X', 'a', 'b'] 1: ['a', 'X', 'b'] 2: ['a', 'b', 'X'] 3: error ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue26194> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
