I am closing because 2 of your 3 examples (and many others) have had the messages changed in an effort to be more informative. But Pablo can reverse this if he wants. In 3.10: >>> * 2 SyntaxError: can't use starred expression here +2 and -2 are also valid expressions. /2 is not and still gets the old message. >>> 2 * SyntaxError: invalid syntax # Same. >>> if a=1: pass SyntaxError: expected ':' # At '=', which *is* an error. Also not what you you suggested, which points to the impossibility of guessing what the coder meant. ---------- nosy: +pablogsal resolution: -> out of date stage: -> resolved status: open -> closed _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue19080> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
