Not being able to use a particular variable name (such as match or case) in the limited context of matching is only a minor wart. Unfortunately, _ for internationalization is already a well-established convention for something that you might well want to do within each separate case. It isn't just that you can't call your variable match; it is that you can't do output without renaming what seems like a standard library function.
Not insurmountable, but also not trivial. _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list -- python-dev@python.org To unsubscribe send an email to python-dev-le...@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman3/lists/python-dev.python.org/ Message archived at https://mail.python.org/archives/list/python-dev@python.org/message/PVETCKEWNZI5LCI7BSXKRIHYD77734MJ/ Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
