Serhiy Storchaka added the comment: The problem is that
func(mandatory_arg1, mandatory_arg2[, optional_arg3[, optinal_arg4]]) is not compatible with the inspect module. In many case a meaningful default value was added if this is possible. For example the Python default shown in the signature can be set to '', 'utf-8' or 'strict' while the C default value is NULL for performance. If the parameter is upper index in the sequence it can be set to sys.maxsize (Py_SSIZE_T_MAX in C). This is not always possible. For example there is not default value for dict.pop(). ---------- nosy: +yselivanov _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue29299> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
