you're moving through this discussion exactly backwards; the current proposal stems from the observation that "for-loop plus generators" in today's Python does in fact provide a block implementation that solves many use cases in an elegant way. PEP 340 builds on this, sorts out a couple of weak points in the current design, and adds an elegant syntax for most remaining use cases. </F> _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
