Is anyone truly attached to nested tuple function parameters; ``def fxn((a,b)): print a,b``? At one of the PyCon sprints Guido seemed okay with just having them removed when Jeremy asked about ditching them thanks to the pain they caused in the AST branch. I personally don't see them being overly useful thanks to assignment unpacking. Plus I don't think they are used very much (gut feeling, though, and not based on any grepping).
Would anyone really throw a huge fit if they went away? I am willing to write a PEP for their removal in 2.6 with a deprecation in 2.5 if people are up for it. Otherwise I say they should definitely go in Python 3. -Brett _______________________________________________ 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
