> Raymond has resisted adding a base class to namedtuple. I believe the > preferred way to identify a namedtuple is to look for a _fields member. FWIW, that was also Guido's opinion as well. A named tuple is generic concept defined in the glossary as "Any tuple-like class whose indexable elements are also accessible using a named attribute". This includes user-defined classes, classes created by collections.namedtuple, and instances of structseq. The code generated by oollections.namedtuple was based on patterns already in widespread use at the time. ---------- nosy: +rhettinger _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue34363> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
