perhaps a better solution is to simply make it so that something like ``a_list + an_iterable`` is valid and the iterable would just be consumed and +’d onto the list.
I don't think I like the asymmetry that this would introduce into + on lists. Currently [1, 2, 3] + (4, 5, 6) is an error because it's not clear whether the programmer intended the result to be a list or a tuple. I think that's a good thing. Also, it would mean that [1, 2, 3] + foo == [1, 2, 3, "f", "o", "o"] which would be surprising and probably not what was intended. -- Greg _______________________________________________ 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
