New submission from Cyril Roelandt <croel...@redhat.com>: The tuple.index() method returns an error message that does not allow users to know what element was being looked for inside the tuple:
>>> ().index(1) Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> ValueError: tuple.index(x): x not in tuple The list.index() method has a much better error message: >>> [].index(1) Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> ValueError: 1 is not in list We could improve tuple.index() so that its behaviour becomes similar to that of list.index(). ---------- messages: 316955 nosy: Cyril Roelandt priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: tuple.index() could return a more explicit error message type: enhancement versions: Python 3.8 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue33560> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
