I'm sure that was irony, d'oh. Just as my suggestion to have stickers "This system runs free of type annotations" for the most zealous anti-annotations folks. The proposed type annotations are very readable. Not as readable as C's type syntax, but ok. Sorry, irony again. I remember myself as a 10-years old kid, trying to wrap my head about C's types syntax, and not getting anything of it. So, please contrast it to C - PEP484 gives very readable syntax, and even both human- and machine-readable. If you feel like writing 3-story type annotation, just resist the temptation, "Any" is your best friend. -- Best regards, Paul mailto:pmis...@gmail.com _______________________________________________ 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
