I am really new to Python contribution community want to propose below
methods for List object. Forgive me if this is not the format to send an
email.
1. *list.replace( item_to_be_replaced, new_item )*: which replaces all
the occurrences of an element in the list instead of writing a new list
comprehension in place.
2. *list.replace( item_to_be_replaced, new_item, number_of_occurrences
)*: which replaces the occurrences of an element in the list till
specific number of occurrences of that element. The
number_of_occurrences can defaulted to 0 which will replace all the
occurrences in place.
3. *list.removeall( item_to_be_removed )*: which removes all the
occurrences of an element in a list in place.
What do you think about these features?
Are they PEP-able? Did anyone tried to implement these features before?
Please let me know.
See the previous discussion about this three years ago:
https://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-ideas/2015-October/036770.html
The conclusion is that this feature is too niche. It works only with
lists, and supports only one test predicate (equality to a specified
value). filter() and comprehensions are more general.
