what haven't we repeated in this thread yet? Motivation was explained. About confusion probably haven't discussed : so Xor ^ works on sets, IIRC for finding union without common elements. That's one point for potential confusion - probably expect it to work with list. Sounds probable? Other operator, e.g. bitshift <<, I dont' think it has potential for confusion. @ operator - currently 'free'. But maybe there is some reserved plans for lists and these operators as well - I don't know. IIRC some time ago Steven D'Aprano proposed something with sets and some of the operators (sorry in advance if that is wrong info, but I\m almost sure there was a related mathematical discussion with sets involved). _______________________________________________ Python-ideas mailing list Python-ideas@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-ideas Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
