New submission from Carl Friedrich Bolz-Tereick <[email protected]>:
I found following inconsistency in the error message when there's a missing
comma (it behaves that way both on main and 3.10).
Here's what happens with numbers, as expected:
Python 3.11.0a1+ (heads/main:32f55d1a5d, Nov 5 2021, 13:18:52) [GCC 11.2.0] on
linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> 1 2 3 4
File "<stdin>", line 1
1 2 3 4
^^^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax. Perhaps you forgot a comma?
But with names the error is further right in the lines:
>>> a b c d
File "<stdin>", line 1
a b c d
^^^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax. Perhaps you forgot a comma?
>>> a b c d e f g
File "<stdin>", line 1
a b c d e f g
^^^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax. Perhaps you forgot a comma?
That looks potentially quite confusing to me?
(I don't know if these nit-picky parsing issues are too annoying, if they are
please tell me to stop filing them).
