I do not think anybody unaware of specific Python syntaxes would misread it. The requirement of the ()s fits with the general recommendation made to avoid \ by enclosing in ()s. The question that remains is if the () around every such integer are required, or if this occurring within any existing ()s is sufficient. ex: method.call(123_ 456, 786_ 9) *could* be semiconfusing. Though , and _ are visually distinct enough that I think it would stand out. And disallowing a final trailing _ prevents "_," accidents. Requiring additional ()s in this case would be fine, but probably isn't worth it. I expect anyone entering a multi-line super long literal to not be inlining them in common practice and always be assigning them to a useful name for readability's sake. -gps > ChrisA > _______________________________________________ > Python-ideas mailing list -- python-ideas@python.org > To unsubscribe send an email to python-ideas-le...@python.org > https://mail.python.org/mailman3/lists/python-ideas.python.org/ > Message archived at > https://mail.python.org/archives/list/python-ideas@python.org/message/TTEDIQXY7E5CSL26CTZKCL4KBJJ35ORU/ > Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/ >
