Did you taked into account that your patch is not backward compatible with py2.5?? Just try to do this with your patch, $ python Python 2.5.1 (r251:54863, Jun 1 2007, 12:15:26) >>> class A: ... def __eq__(self, other): ... return other == 3 ... >>> A() in xrange(3) False >>> A() in xrange(4) True >>> I know, my example is biased, but I have to insist. With this patch, 'a in xrange' will in general not be the same as 'a in range(...)'. I am fine with this for py3k, but not sure if all people will agree on this for python 2.6. -- Lisandro Dalcín --------------- Centro Internacional de Métodos Computacionales en Ingeniería (CIMEC) Instituto de Desarrollo Tecnológico para la Industria Química (INTEC) Consejo Nacional de Investigaciones Científicas y Técnicas (CONICET) PTLC - Güemes 3450, (3000) Santa Fe, Argentina Tel/Fax: +54-(0)342-451.1594 _______________________________________________ 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
