Serhiy Storchaka added the comment: Different cases accept different types. Not always we can say that only one specific type is accepted.
"list +" accepts only lists, "list +=" is a syntax sugar for list.extend and accepts any iterables. "bytes +" and "bytearray +=" accept any objects that support the buffer protocol. "array +" and "array +=" accept only arrays. Changing semantic is out of the scope of this issue. I think there are reasons for current behavior. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue29116> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
