I'm not sure that we should mention the fast path for dicts. That is an implementation detail and may not be present in IronPython, PyPy, Jython, etc. The current version includes: D.updated(E, **F) --> None. Updated D for dict/iterable E and F. ISTM that covers the semantics of what it does. Your proposed modification gets into how it does it. ---------- nosy: +rhettinger _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue10240> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
