SEMANTICS OF NO ARGUMENTS I can see two basic ways of allowing no arguments. One is for the interpreter to construct an object that is the argument passed to __getitem__ and so forth. The other is to not pass an argument at all. I see this as a secondary question.
If d[] were to be allowed, I would expect it to pass an empty tuple as the index, since it's the limiting case of reducing the number of positional indices. -- Greg _______________________________________________ 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/FTVKPIY456KK3E2AA6B6BCKYGUMD53WP/ Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
