I know everyone else is probably sick of discussing this (I somehow completely missed the discussion until it was almost done) but I have a question... Why does this not allow assignment to attributes and subscripts? I think this is, at least, surprising enough that there should be a rationale section explaining it in the PEP. As it is, it's barely even explicitly stated, other than the use of 'NAME' in a few places and an offhand mention "and [the assignment statement] can assign to attributes and subscripts." _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
